We are quite flexable in how we handle the licensing issues for HPOJ. The 
important thing is to get your/HP's intent documented.

I doubt a new tarball would be required.  In fact an email from you to either 
hpoj-devel and/or 147430@bugs.debian.org is probably sufficient as if you 
make your intent clear in public forum, then your intent is clear and Debian 
will act accordingly.

No problem David.  There isn't a critical timeline on this, especially since 
HP are progressing this. The bugs.debian.org archive shows clearly that there 
is progress so we are quite happy.
