I don't think this helps much. The DFSG are not a license but guidlines to judge licenses by. It is good that the uploader to CTAN stated that the license is DFSG free, but one still needs the explicit license. > I also had a short look at the book, there's nothing in it about the > examples, except for the download location (so I didn't find anything > contradicting the above). Some years ago I would have said 'fine'. Nowadays one should be more careful. Hence an explicit statement by the author which files are released under which license would be the best thing to have. cheerio ralf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
