Deep in the 'eliminate writeln et comp?' thread there's been a recent
discussion about the confusion over Tango licences. In particular,
regarding the desire that the standard library shouldn't require binary
'copies' (a.k.a. every single executable compiled using it) from
publishing/containing the library's licence. (And specifically, trying to
understand the AFL) Anyways, I recently checked D2, and about half the
druntime files are in BSD (which require publication) while the other half
are in the zlib/libpng/Phobos licence (which doesn't).
This is a serious legal obligation which isn't in the primary DMD licence
or readme. Would it be possible for the licence in druntime to be unified?
(If not, a more prominent notice would be appreciated)
Thank you.
