Unde vezi tu cutia produsului aici? Spune clar: IN DOCUMENTATIA end-user... Si cu ce te impiedica sa mai bagi o pagina in plus, nu pricep... Oricum, NU este primul software care se gaseste sub alta licenta decat BSD in distributii (De exemplu Postgres SQL e BSD). Daca o distributie deja are un "same place and form as other third-party acknowledgments", atunci nu va face decat sa adauge noua licenta... nu? Aaaaaaaa... daca o luam pe alta parte...: NU mai poti sa faci packages de upgrade pentru versiunile anterioare ale distributiei... e ALTCEVA ! Probabil la asta s-au referit cei de la Fedora sau alte distributii ca nu mai pot sa bage XFree86 4.4.0 in upgrade packages, nu cred ca intr-o noua versiune, unde poate scoate documentatia cu addons ce le cere licenta. -- Claudiu Cismaru GPG Key: http://maya.cnixs.com/~claudiu/claudiu.gpg --- Detalii despre listele noastre de mail: http://www.lug.ro/
