At first, if you distribute binary files with your project you have to add a README file in the directory of the binary files and write there the copyright and license notices of them down. Do you mean the contents of those packages README and which liscense (GPL, LGPGL) that they are under? Sorry, I'm all new to this kinda stuff. Also, i'm just re-using the binaries that where included in the original code. As I type this I ma trying to find replacements for these binaries so I will have access to thier lisence's and such. As for my COPYING file, I have downloaded the newer one you refered me to. It will be in the next version I upload later today. I was jsut reusing the COPYING that came with the original source that I'm basing TeriBBot on. I uploaded a newer version earlier this evening, as of me sending this to you, it doesn't meet the requirements you have stated to me, but later today, I'll re-upload it with the changes. You can find the updated bot and more compliant code http://www.linuxchics.org/dl/tbb/tbb-0.4.tar.bz2 but please wait until after 5pm EST before the more complaint code can be put up. ----- End forwarded message ----- Hello.

Thanks. :/ The binaries in your project aren't the problem. But you are not the copyright holder of those ones. So you have to write a README file with the copyright and license notices of them. So you should go to the ncourses team and download there the source code, then you'll have a look at the COPYING/LICENSE file to know the license of it, and then at the copyright of the files [for example]. At second, please add the FULL permission-to-copy statements on the top of every file of source code. http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html could helps you.
