Hi Thomas,
here down in the DBTS we've got an inclusion wish for footbib and
algorithm. These packages were removed before 2.0 due to licensing
issues. I've downloaded the packages and checked the license. It
seems to be OK now. Would you be so kind to reinclude them?
Thanks,
Hilmar

Hello,
According to "/usr/share/doc/tetex-extra/README.Debian.gz", the LaTeX
packages algorithm.sty, algorithmic.sty, and footbib.sty were removed
from teTeX due to license issues.
As their licenses are now clarified, would it be possible to include
them again?
The licenses are now:
* LPPL for footbib.sty
http://www.dante.de/CTAN//help/Catalogue/entries/footbib.html
* LGPL for Peter Williams' algorithms
http://www.dante.de/CTAN//help/Catalogue/entries/algorithms.html
Thank you
