Hmmm .. i'm just reading it, and it seems to me to be ok.
It does insist that the software remain open source -- if you give
it or a derived work to someone you cannot refuse to supply
or point at the source: so a distributor cannot extinguish
the open-ness.
It looks like a French version of GPL to me :)
But IANAL ..
Preamble:
The purpose of this Free Software license agreement is to grant users
the right to modify and re-use the software governed by this license.
The exercising of this right is conditional upon the obligation to make
available to the community the modifications made to the source code of
the software so as to contribute to its evolution.
Does Debian have specific requirements for particular, recognized
licences?
