Hi Mauro, Luca and Jakub,

I am writing this message to try solve the #809830 bug.

The wtop (orphan and in experimental), originally, uses BSD-3-Clause
license. The packaging uses GPL (GPL-3, I can supose, considering that
it isn't clear in debian/copyright).

I would like to change the packaging to BSD-3-Clause to make the
upstream source code and packaging full compliant. To do it, I need
your agreement. Can you tell me about your opinion?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Regards,

Eriberto
