Re: dxsamples: New upstream version 4.4.0 available
Hi Debian Legal
The previous maintainer of dxsamples felt that the license of some of
the examples added in more recent versions made it unsuitable for
distribution in Debian.
Below is the license of one of the new files, util/biorad-pic. I would
appreciate your opinion on this matter please.
The full source (7.8MB) can be downloaded after filling in a
registration form from opendx.org [1], or from one of the other
distributions that package OpenDX samples, e.g. Fedora [2], FreeBSD, or
Gentoo. The file should have the md5 sum e8f43722ca0a66282608bded7c0e4f93.
Regards
Graham
