Package: gridengine Version: 6.2-4 Severity: wishlist Hi! Thanks for maintaining Sun GridEngine in Debian!
As stated in [1], "Sun has ceased to use or recommend" the SISSL license. However, by looking at the debian/copyright file of this package, it seems gridengine is still under the SISSL. My personal opinion on the SISSL is not overly positive: I would love seeing gridengine re-licensed under better terms, such as those of the GNU GPL v2 [2], of the Expat/MIT [3], or of the Apache v2 [4]. Could this be asked to Sun, please? Thanks for your time.
