What would be a more suitable setting of the PERMIT_* values?
Obviously, I am not a lawyer - could someone please break down
for me what the license text means for the idividual PERMIT_*'s?
(1) COPYRIGHT is installed with the package,
containing the copyright notice and the warranty disclaimer
(2) Names of the copyright holders are not used in advertising
without permission
(3) Putting this on an OpenBSD CD and selling that CD _would_ be
a "use of this software ... for direct commercial advantage", right?
Is (3) the problem?
Is it at all possible that this would go in the OpenBSD ports tree?
If so, what should the PERMIT_* be?
Apart from that:
any comments on the port itself?
