From the COPYING file, it looks like the actual intention is to license under a BSD license with an exception for converting to GPL. But, Since the three-clause BSD license is used, it's my understanding that that's not really necessary. Since Red Hat holds the copyright and there do not appear to be any non-Red Hat authors, maybe the best thing to do would be simply to ask if we can relicense this as BSD 2-clause and be done with it? -- Matthew Miller ☁☁☁ Fedora Cloud Architect ☁☁☁ <mat...@fedoraproject.org> -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
