The overworked debian/copyright file for the freediams package can be viewed here: http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/debian-med/trunk/packages/freediams/trunk/debian/copyright?revision=8714&view=markup Please seek for "drugs/master.db" to find the relevant licensing information about the compilation of data. As far as I understand upstream upstream the database in the old version is featuring the same data sources in older version (but unlikely with different licenses). In case the version in Squeeze would be considered free also all other versions are free (which would be *really* good news). So please, please prove me wrong in my opinion that this database is not distributable. I'm specifically concerned about: 3) French drugs database and drug-drug interaction (starting point): http://afssaps-prd.afssaps.fr/php/ecodex License: free for non commercial use © AFSSAPS License terms: http://www.afssaps.fr/Mentions-legales 6) Eudapharm drugs database partially used License:. License terms: http://www.ema.europa.eu/ema/index.jsp?curl=pages/regulation/general/general_content_000178.jsp&jsenabled=true In particular, unless otherwise stated, the Agency, according. to current European Union and international legislation1, is the owner of. copyright and database rights of this website and its contents. .

Such acknowledgement must be included in each copy of the material. ... I suggested upstream to provide a completely free database and an additional non-free database but he did not agreed to this suggestion.[1] Kind regards Andreas.
