This looks like a restriction in modifications, a distorted way to introduce invariant data. If the software includes such logos or trademarks in the user interface, I think this is clearly non-free. Otherwise, it is not a problem. > Term and Termination > * 6.1 - This Agreement will continue in effect unless > and until terminated earlier pursuant to this Section > 6. > * 6.2 - In the event You violate the terms of this > Agreement, Yahoo! may terminate this Agreement. This looks like a lawyerbomb, as the wording suggests Yahoo! can reserve the rights to revoke the license if they think you have violated it. > All disputes arising out of this Agreement involving > Yahoo! or any of its subsidiaries shall be subject to > the jurisdiction of the federal or state courts of > northern California, with venue lying in Santa Clara > County, California. This is a choice of venue clause. There’s controversy over it, and many people consider it non-free. I disagree in the general case, but together with the 6.2 termination clause, it puts an unacceptable burden on the recipient and clearly fails the “tentacles of evil” test. Therefore I think this license is non-free. Cheers, -- .''`. Debian 5.0 "Lenny" has been released! : :' : `. `' Last night, Darth Vader came down from planet Vulcan and told `- me that if you don't install Lenny, he'd melt your brain.
