Hi all,

we Debian got a bug which reported that g-brief
might be non-free;

%% You are not allowed to change this file.  You may however copy this file
%% to a file with a different name and then change the copy.
%% 
%% You are NOT ALLOWED to distribute this file alone.  You are NOT ALLOWED
%% to take money for the distribution or use of this file (or a changed
%% version) except for a nominal charge for copying etc.

especially the last sentence is very problematic.

It is very sad to see some authors of LaTeX packages
put possibly unnecessary or unintentinal phrase
to their license.

Best regards,			2003-2-22(Sat)
