Follow-up Comment #3, task #7734 (project administration): Hi,
Can you tell us why that would be a problem? After more research, the reason we ask is that the Pine program was distributed under a license which had this kind of wording, and their authors weirdly argued that this allowed to privately modify and distribute verbatim, but did _not_ allow to distribute modified versions. - Their position: http://www.washington.edu/pine/faq/legal.html - A Debian developer commenting on the issue: http://people.debian.org/~terpstra/message/20021112.091356.2048f162.en.html This made the software non-free. That why we'd appreciate you change "and" in "and/or" - not in order to mimic the ISC, but instead to avoid this possible license misinterpretation. Regards. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/task/?7734> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
