I've updated the server source in git to reflect FreeB 2.0. Older servers are exactly as free now, you just have to be aware that FreeB got updated. I don't see an update to the GLX Public License yet though. It's sort of implied in the press release that it's covered too, but the text here isn't changed: http://www.sgi.com/products/software/opensource/glx/license.html - ajax signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg

Recalling from reading the Debian bug report that started this whole thing, this covers GLX (server side), I believe, at least as far as non-DFSG-free code already in the server. Mesa is a clean(ish)*-room implementation of the OpenGL client-side. * I'm pretty sure that as SGI has freed code under a suitable license it has been absorbed into Mesa. At any rate, the days of license problems with SGI's OpenGL code are fast becoming history. ___ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
