https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2010-April/030660.html Full logs of the discussion should appear on this link after about 16:00 BST - scroll to around 15:05 for the relevant parts of the meeting: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2010/04/20/%23ubuntu-meeting.html The short version of the judgement appears to be "there's lots of stuff which is 'restricted use' not 'restricted distribution', such as libMAD". If you have any further concerns, please raise them with the Technical Board. ** Changed in: autopano-sift (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix -- SIFT algorithm is patented in US https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550255 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
