CUPS and OpenSSL

[Jeff Licquia <licquia@debian.org>]

The short synopsis: CUPS is GPL and can link against OpenSSL.  Easy
Software Products has provided me with a license clause to handle that
situation.  What do you think?

    OPENSSL TOOLKIT LICENSE EXCEPTION

    In addition, as the copyright holder of CUPS, Easy Software Products
    grants the following special exception:

        Easy Software Products explicitly allows the compilation and
        distribution of the CUPS software with the OpenSSL Toolkit.
        The requirement for disclosure of the use of OpenSSL in
        CUPS-derived software is not deemed by Easy Software
        Products to constitute a violation of the distribution
        terms of the GNU GPL, since the GNU GPL specifically
        requires acknowledgement of the original copyright holder
        in derived works.
