According to this: http://coding.derkeiler.com/Archive/Tcl/comp.lang.tcl/2004-04/0840.html (I could not find other sources, but from my reading of the licenses this seems correct), Tcl is licensed under a BSD-style license. Looking at the code, looks like slnunicode uses code from both Tcl (BSD-style, but not verbatim -- for one, it's not worded in clauses) and Lua 5.0 (MIT/X11-style license). The FSF free software directory lists Tcl/Tk as being licensed with the "Tcl license", so I guess "Tcl license + MIT/X11" would be a more correct license description for the rock. Both are non-copyleft free software licenses, so I believe they're basically equivalent (and compatible). In any case, I'm updating the description. -- Hisham _______________________________________________ Luarocks-developers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.luaforge.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/luarocks-developers
