[ cc-ing the ITP, so people know that work is going on :) ] Hi!
I just checked the copyright-file of your package, and if I understand it corectly is (not yet) fit for an upload to main. Citing debian/copyright: ====== This license holds for the program itself: the source code and the data files except some of the sounds files. [... usual GPL stuff...] Sound files are licensed under Sampling Plus 1.0 license. (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/sampling+/1.0/) ====== Without further checking those statement seems to contradict each other "some of the soundfiles" and "Sound files" (I would read the last one as "all sound files"). If it's just some of them, then there should be list of which of them falls under the Sampling Plus 1.0 license. Second point would be, that just mentioning the URL of the license is against Policy 4.5 "Every package must be accompanied by a verbatim copy of its copyright and distribution license...". Thirst and last point (the most important one): I think the Sampling Plus 1.0 license is non-free; quoting the long versions § 3.b: ====== Prohibition on advertising. All advertising and promotional uses are excluded from the above rights, except for advertisement and promotion of the Derivative Work(s) that You are creating from the Work and Yourself as the author thereof. ====== I think that fails §6 DFSG. I'm not sure, §3.a ii of this license is okay for the DFSG, but tend to think "yes". So, I don't intend to upload this package, until this is resolved (or someone convinces me, that this license is dfsg free).
