Webmin



Hi all

I am sorry if this has been discussed lately, but I am not subscribed to
the list at the moment.
I can remember a discussion about a webmin package a while ago. The
consensus then was that webmin can not be packaged because of it's
license.

Quoting from the webmin homepage:

What licence is Webmin distributed under?

Following the acquisition of Webmin by Caldera, all past and future
versions of Webmin are available under the BSD
licence. This means that on Linux and other platforms, Webmin may be
freely distributed and modified for commercial and
non-commercial use. 


Is somebody working on it now ? I would package it, but at the moment I
do not have enough free time to do so.
I think that Webmin could be very useful to many users of Debian and
with a BSD license, it seems perfectly reasonable to include it in main.

greets,
Rene
