Dear Maintainer, Upstream has added licensing information that is both inaccurate as well as now violates the terms of the DFSG. Specifically: https://github.com/simh/simh/commit/ce2adce632e1a22e6d76d4bf726d6b863373c550 > Additionally, the following restrictions on the use of this software apply. > > Any use of this codebase that changes the code to influence the behavior of > the disk access activities is free to do that as long as anyone doing this > is explicitly not licensed to any subsequent changes to any part of the > codebase made by Mark Pizzolato after that functionality was implemented by > Mark Pizzolato. Changes that qualify for this restriction at least include: > changing the behavior or default of SET AUTOSIZE/NOAUTOSIZE, or any code > in sim_disk.c or any simulator components that use the sim_disk routines. > > All changes to the codebase made after the inclusion of this LICENSE.txt > file in the github simh repository.
