Hi, The question about media file was answered in an old documentation that was apparently not moved to the wiki:
"10.4.5 Non-software data ------------------------ RMS suggested we accept any free license for images and other data that are a secondary part of a package that is mainly software." Can you create an entry in the wiki somewhere? I'm concerned that he uses anim8tor (instead of Blender, for instance). This a freeware for MS Woe. If people can't modify or otherwise freely use the 3D models using exclusively free software, this is a problem. -- Sylvain On Fri, Feb 22, 2008 at 11:42:23PM +0200, Alexander Shulgin wrote: > Hi Sylvain, > > I've checked the dependencies for this project--they all seem to be > compatible with GNU GPLv2 and with each other. > > The package contains over a hundred of media files (artwork and music) > totaling 19M.
