License question
The following license applies to one cardset included with
pysolfc-cardsets (currently waiting for review). It looks like MIT/X to
me, but as IANAL, I was wondering if this is DFSG compatible and thus
okay to include? (I'm currently not including it because I wasn't sure.)
Kind regards
Bernhard Reiter
PS Please CC me as I'm not a list subscriber!

% History: Spider is a solitaire card game that can be found in various
books
% of same; the rules are presumed to be in the public domain. The
author's
% first computer implementation was on the Stanford Artificial
Intelligence Lab
% system (SAIL). It was later ported to the Xerox Development
Environment.
% The card images are loosely based on scanned-in images but were
largely
% redrawn by the author with help from Larry Rosenberg.
%
% This program is written entirely in NeWS and runs on OPEN WINDOWS 1.0.
% It could be made to run much faster if parts of it were written in C,
using
% NeWS mainly for its display and input capabilities, but that is left
as an
% exercise for the reader. Spider may also run with little or no
modification
% on subsequent releases of OPEN WINDOWS, but no guarantee is made on
this
% point (nor any other; see above!). To run Spider, feed this file to
'psh'.
