I contacted the upstream author already and he is willing to fix this confusion by changing the license agreement to a clear GPL-2 statement. He said, he uses NBD *headers* only. IANAL but as of my understanding this makes xNBD a derivate work. However I suggested him to contact debian-legal for this particular use case. I don't think he was aware GPL-2+ is different than GPL-2, so this was not an intentional infringement. > Please talk to your upstream to get them to clarify this; and while > you're at it, might want to let them know that I'm always interested in > taking useful patches for vanilla nbd :-) I already did for your first concern. When writing him the next time, I will mention your second as well. :-) - -- with kind regards, Arno Töll GnuPG Key-ID: 0x8408D4C4 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJNYkI/AAoJELBdpXvEXpo9EMsP/01c+uI0yUbqg85g9BdQhpVa E8Q5DMBkagOzPxBQXbD+7uBSj51EFzVpXu+VpZIeubA96iw5gM+liciIEFHxQysR 8tSbQItt3ePqW82KXNBlwds2TZN8Z6YLwsPzNN8yJ23JxXZ4vx7DnSYHRmuGj7gZ Auvz+Zb4E/sFdJp31Jf35a/v67lkyhNA3DkaqPxrDIytev3MKTBhDAFWb11uaUmI 8iDkH/Ky4mQl2azruRTFf318avof97aAmSjp0tGMcHbgfdL43na5ZsCW/CqOTlCf hayqkqq4yaZZfHsv+N/AeGMas/6M9gUyInwtEsXdYlfB/62tAYh1FGxhOjfKAdiH /Ux08zynHrewNE6iUyOCVIiq03f4Lq/DdpfmUiY4yZXu7yAP7T7YNK733Kwj8n5E I6wQhqY2G1fu86sS2DQsNc4Ga+C4BeFx9ylWoHirNK0cisiQpFiKaKPBWYWjdFrY 0Ggnz+3Jfh1Kn1GlEtHRJ0vCAnm+QJAWGKnDzkXcA2Bc9Y3hfW0Pe2JjX9PtEfxp rHoIFlQkXamESHQyMgEIwbWxD+9jxfLbrJYAwmgHAqMbk9V/gLOebTHJO4vkMA4F TkT7EqeZrUdBzMmZctKBvb4heQutJ9Z9+NxX7/OulHaVcMHJulU3Ghq+miyA1U5q RtlbScrtGXy5v6fZrPiJ =ag8F -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
