The best person to contact is probably Jon Bloom, KE3Z <jbloom@arrl.org),
who is the web adminstrator at ARRL. There are others not on the ARRL
staff who are also working on the software, but I suggest that there be a
single Debian point of contact (Hamish?) and that person direct any
comments to Jon (with Cc to debian-hams).
There is a Yahoo mailing list for the TrustedQSL project
<http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TrustedQSL/>, also a web site at
>http://www.trustedqsl.org> and one at Sourceforge
<https://sourceforge.net/projects/trustedqsl>, however I didn't find
any discussion of the rationale for the choice of license at any of the
above sites.
