Hi David, I see that you've done the work to write an interpreter for the FOCAL language. Recently, a request for this package was filed in Debian GNU/Linux.[1] I'd be interested in packaging your interpreter for distribution in Debian (and by extension, Ubuntu) because it seems like a useful piece of history.
However, before doing that, I would need clarification on the license. I don't see one in the source. Under what conditions is the distribution of your interpreter permitted? Some good choices for free licenses may be the GPL or the 3-clause BSD license, depending on your taste. Normally, Public Domain is not as good of a choice.[2] Also, is there a versioning system you use for packaging? Or is this the final version of FOCAL? Thanks, Daniel [1] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=551763 [2] http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/6225
