Bug#515198: A progress report



There is a problem with GFDL-1.3 and implicit invariant
sections in the form of front-cover and back-cover. This
caused rejection from NEW/main since I failed to observe
this issue.

I have now contacted the upstream author in order to
relax the licensing. Should that fail, the source must
be repackaged to have the texinfo documentation go into
a non-free package, while retaining the executables in
"main" as is expected. I had to write some condensed
manual pages all from the beginning, since the upstream
author only provides the texinfo format for documentation,
so the package will be fully useable in whatever form
it gets released in the end.

Best regards for now,
  Mats Erik Andersson, DM
