Re: RFS: ax-emergency-listen

Hello all,

Reading the link of the software I read:

"The use of the APRS® Internet Gateway subsystem is allowed only for licensed radio amateur operators. APRS® is a registered trademark of Bob Bruninga, WB4APR."

How does it fit with the GPL or the Debian requirements for free software?

I have not read the full license of APRS but it seems that we could face some problems there...

What do you think?

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "ax-emergency-listen".

The package appears to be lintian clean.

The upload would fix these bugs: 608964
