Hi, It seems the development of hexchat is vivid [1] whereas the development of xchat is stalled. The OpenSSL exception was also added to the license so it's safe to package in Debian.
See here: https://github.com/hexchat/hexchat/blob/master/readme.md [1] https://github.com/hexchat/hexchat/graphs/commit-activity over a 100 commits in the last few months. Cheers, Oz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
