Bug#356345: tetex-base: [licensing] antp fonts state they are Public Domain without explaining
Package: tetex-base
Version: 3.0-15
Severity: normal
As far as I could find out, the ANTP fonts' only license statement is in
the header or README.ENG:
*****************************************************************************
* A replica of Antykwa P\'o\l{}tawskiego font *
* in PostScript Type 1 format -- preliminary version *
* Public domain *
*****************************************************************************
Since Public Domain isn't a well defined term at least in some laws,
probably including the polish, this should be made more specific, like
"Permission is granted to freely use, distribute and/or modify all files
in the bundle."
Regards, Frank
