As Thomas has stated already, Michael has uploaded another version
(4.01), which were installed at CTAN this morning. The licence reads
now:
% This file is part of the G-BRIEF package.
%-----------------------------------------------------------------------

% It may be distributed under the terms of the LaTeX Project Public
% License (LPPL), as described in lppl.txt in the base LaTeX
% distribution. Either version 1.1 or, at your option, any later
% version.

% The latest version of this license is in

% http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt
%
% LPPL Version 1.1 or later is part of all distributions of LaTeX
% version 1999/06/01 or later.

%
etc. The question now boils down to: Is the LPPL compatible to
the DFSG? I don't know about the results on debian-legal. As I
understood Thomas he'll include g-brief in the next teTeX-upload.
