Right. Currently Novell defines the EULA for the OSS product.
This is done by adding a few exception phrases to an EULA template
that was meant for proprietory software. Not really easy prose.
It is being rewritte for 10.1 currently.
I am looking forward to see some improvements.
I can give a 'human readable' interpretation of the EULA as soon as I am
sure what it means.
Please help by filing specific bugzilla entries against the EULA.
cheers,
Jw.
