tags 426473 + patch thanks Hello!
I've been looking at doing an NMU for Muine, and ofcourse I should have looked at open bugs for other packages generated from the same source as well. Sorry for missing that. I've looked at the Muine source and found that, additionally to the NotificationArea.cs that you mentioned, the dbus C# glues under deps/ are also licensed under the MIT License. One might argue that the entire work is only available under the GPL and that's the only valid license for the entire package, but mentioning that some parts might be available under other licensing options probably doesn't hurt. I've added a note about this in my upcoming version of the NMU diff that looks like the below text... Please see if you can find any problems with my wording or if there are additional files that I've missed available under other licenses as well. New part added to debian/copyright: ----<>---- Some parts like deps/dbus-sharp/, dbus-sharp-glib/ and plugins/NotificationArea.cs are also available under the MIT License: Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.
