Okay, currently there are two songs included with the game that were created by zhaytee: music/wesnoth-1.ogg music/wesnoth-2.ogg Sirp does not have the mail correspondency that took place with zhaytee about three and a half year ago. So we don't know for 100% sure that he explicitly did agree on having it licensed under the GPL. Though I am rather sure that he did never explicitly state that he wanted it under a special license that is *not* the GPL. So unless he does not contact us stating that his music was never released under the GPL we can assume that he knows it is licensed under the GPL and that he accepts it. The whole of Wesnoth always was GPL, no extra license.txt files were ever used and stuff, even in the old days many years ago. But if he contacts us stating that he does not want his music under the GPL license we should completely remove it from *all* upcoming releases.

That is *not* on the campaign server or in one of our official packages linked directly from the website and hosted in our area of influence. If eg some people did package it with XYZ and place a link in our wiki to it, we can not be responsible since we don't really host it. If something definatly non-GPL was in our packages we would have to remove it since it IMO would be a conflict with the license itself.
