IMPORTANT NOTE! The source under src/engine/external are stripped
libraries with their own licenses. Mostly BSD or zlib/libpng license but
check the individual libraries.

With that being said, contact us if there is anything you want to do
that the license does not premit.
That's the zlib license (http://www.gzip.org/zlib/zlib_license.html)
with an extra clause forbidding some kind of commercial usage
("Neither this software nor any of its individual components, in
original or modified versions, may be sold by itself"). I'm not really
sure that it is DFSG-compliant. I'm CCing debian-legal to get other
opinions on that.
