WNPP: working on xmbdfed



I'm working on xmbdfed which is a powerfull  X11 font editor. It works
with lesstif.

I need to  work out with  the author some  part of the copyright which
stats :

>From the HBF code:

 *	Charles Wang	<charles.wang@infores.com>
 *	Werner Lemberg	<a7621gac@awiuni11.edvz.univie.ac.at>
 */

I think this  categorizes it to   non-free. I have  to check  with the
author which  is not  the author  of  this copyright because  he  said
himself that he modified those files.

PS: Anthony  could you setup a development  package for freetype  ?  I
have to build xmbdfed from your sources...

Fred - May the source be with you
