It seems to me, that some maintainers do not carefully read the licenses of the programs they package. Just gathering all soft for Debian within reach. :( So I have the same problem I have with majordomo, contacting the author and persuading him to change the license. I'm not a very experienced Debian-Developer and my English could be better, otoh nobody seems to be interested in keeping such packages as nobody responded on my (and joey's) call for help. How about developing a standard email which could be send by each maintainer to the author. Maybe pointing out what our intention is, mentioning the social-contract and such things ? Would anybody take care of this please ? Or is there _really_ no need for this ? regards Sascha -- Sascha Runschke private eMail : decker@matrix.ping.de Cell: +49-(0)177-2767693 Debian related : decker@debian.org Get the power of Debian-linux - http://www.debian.org Key fingerprint = EE354ADB C23E5FD4 38DDBBE7 8F065DBF
