Also, I've noticed that the licensing terms for phpCAS are a bit ambiguous...
Looking at : http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/CASC/phpCAS ("License" chapter) it seems to me that they refer to the "New BSD License" while still mentioning an "advertising clause" in condition 3 in the text bellow :(
As such this would mean that it's using the "old style advertizing clause BSD" to me... which is DFSG-free I think, but not compatible with the GNU GPL.
I'm going to look for more details, and will ask clarification with upstream author.
Best regards,
