It's very clearly free, despite being ambigious. I think it's sufficent to put into Debian. If you're still in contact with him, though, it might be nice to change GPL to GNU GPL, version 2 or any later version. BSD is also a little vague - it seems like it would be without advertising clause, but it doesn't say that. BSD isn't the title of a license, it's a name for a group of closely related licenses. It really doesn't matter, though. -- David Starner - dstarner98@aasaa.ofe.org This message property of the Secret Masters. Unauthorized duplication or reading will result in execution.
