Hi all,

I want to confirm if the license below is DFSG free or not:
http://www.array.com.tw/company/array_license.pdf

The most suspicious part is:
When any derived and related work of Array Input Method is released to
public, the licensee must inform the original author of Array Input
Method within one month by sending an e-mail to:
array30@ms10.hinet.net with the subject: "Informing: Array Input
Method".


This is postcardware (when modified) and absolutely fails the Desert Island Test.  It is not DSFG free for this reason.  

IANAL, TINLA, yatta, yatta.
