In case you link against openssl and havent added the ssl exception yet
- there, my rejection template from NEW will be something to read for you:

--8schnipp-8---
while looking at your package in NEW I discovered that it is
linking against openssl, itself beeing GPL licensed.
Sorry, but this doesnt work, the OpenSSL license and the GPL are
incompatible. For more information, and a link to give to your
upstream please visit
http://www.openssl.org/support/faq.html#LEGAL2 or/and
http://www.gnome.org/~markmc/openssl-and-the-gpl.html

After this is fixed feel free to upload your package again.

Thank you, I missed that one... I'll try to contact all the authors... But I 
guess I'll end having to change the dependency from openssl to TLS...

I'll update this ITP as soon as the issue is solved.

Thanks for the warning,

OK, this was quicker than I expected... I managed to talk to all copyright 
owners and the license was changed to be GPL with an ssl clause similar to 
the one described at http://www.gnome.org/~markmc/openssl-and-the-gpl.html .

There's now a new version, 0.3.1, with this license issue solved.

2007-12-11 Thread Marcos Daniel Marado Torres
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Marcos Daniel Marado Torres [EMAIL PROTECTED]


* Package name: crystal
  Version : 0.3.0
  Upstream Author : Marcos Daniel Marado Torres [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* URL : http://talkerspt.no-ip.org/~mbooster/crystal
* License : GPLv2
  Programming Lang: C++
  Description : Crystal - a SSL-enabled MUD text-client

Cristal is a text-based MUD client that supports not only telnet
connection but also telnet-ssl connections. Crystal's philosophy is to
provide an interface as unclutted as UNIX telnet's, but with more
features, such as line editing, split-screen scrollback.

As a Debian user and the upstream author, I would most gladly be
interested in maintaining an official Debian package (which would be my
first). As you can see in the project's homepage, I already do the
packaging for it...

Best regards,
Marcos Marado
