Source and Copyright question concerning cspsfonts



Dear authors of the CS PS fonts!

You are listed in license.eng from the cstex package as authors of the
CSfonts. While analyzing the license/source situation of teTeX and TeX
live for Debian, we found that the following files:
	ntimes.sty
 	nhelvet.sty
	cspsfont.{il2,tex,xl2}
contain the follwoing statement:
-----------------
%% The original source files were:
%% 
%% cspsfont.doc  (with options: `fonts,IL2')
%% 
%% IMPORTANT NOTICE:
%% 
%% For the copyright see the source file.
%% 
%% You are *not* allowed to modify this file.
%% 
%% You are *not* allowed to distribute this file.
%% For distribution of the original source see
%% the terms for copying and modification in the file  cspsfont.doc.
---------------

Unfortunately file cspsfont.doc is nowhere to be found, and the license
statement given in these files don't allow distribution/modification, so
they wouldhave to be removed from TeX live and teTeX (at least for
Debian).

Could you please clarify this situation for us, and preferably/if
possible also provide the original cspsfont.doc file?

Thanks a lot from the (Debian) teTeX and (Debian) TeX live people

DALRYMPLE (n.)
Dalarymples are the things you pay extra for on pieces of hand-made
craftwork - the rough edges, the paint smudges and the holes in the
glazing.
