Re: Is GeneralUser soundfont's license suitable for Debian main?
I don't think this license would pass ftp-master review, there is too much uncertainty about the provenance and license of the samples. Thank you for the answer. Also I found this soundfont in the existing Debian package minuet-data by path /usr/share/minuet/soundfonts/GeneralUser-v1.47.sf2.

I'm not comfortable with how this mentions specific ways the soundfont can be used; "your own music creation", "in your software". What about other people's music or other people's software? This is especially problematic for collaboratively produced open source software. > ** License of contained samples ** ... > I cannot be 100% sure where all of the samples originated ... > Could you say, is "License of contained samples" allowable for Debian or > such files are fully non-allowed?
