I have no power to fix bug #238245 (please also take into account that the copyright holder is not SPI, but a large number of individual contributors, see the cloned bug #388141): I am not even a DD and I have never contributed anything to the Debian website... A decision must be taken and then all the copyright holders must be tracked down, contacted and asked to agree to the re-licensing. If you are willing to help me in generating a reliable list of copyright holders for the Debian website (I think the place to look at is the WWW CVS), I can draft a standardized e-mail message to send to each one of them and collect their replies (those replies should be sent to the e-mail address of bug #238245 or maybe #388141). > > however, since apparently debian people do not even care about *real*[0] > license violations, sadly, i would not be surprised if they don't care > about that too... > > [0] #497471, #507706 This is discouraging, indeed... :-( Unfortunately, I've already encountered several cases where I was disappointed by the lack of strictness with which the Debian SC (or even the law) is complied with within the Debian Project. :-( -- http://www.inventati.org/frx/progs/scripts/pdebuild-hooks.html Need some pdebuild hook scripts? .....................................................
