Advice on copyright for cdf



[Please cc me on replies]

Hi,

I'm packaging tela, and the newest version uses cdf[1] (from nasa).
The cdf copyright[2] is basically 'only non-profit'.  However, there
is a line about inclusion in substantive product allowint for profit.

Does that aloow us to have cdf it in main?  Either as included in
Debian, or included in the tela package.

TIA,

Micce
