Re: elinks rc bug
It is a *serious policy violation*. I've been talking with the
ftpparse lists and it turns out that there is a replacement in the
program ftpcopy (search google). I haven't verified it though. Here's
my analysis of the problems:
* Commercial use requires contacting author (no specific DFSG
violation, but still makes it nonfree in my opinion)
* Doesn't give explicit permission to modify or redistribute (serious
violation of DFSGs #1 and 3)
* prozilla uses an unmodified version, elinks uses a modified version.
* This is still a release blocker in my opinion
