Hi everyone Based on notes that you all have provided in the discussion here, I have updated the Releases/1.3/Packages page on the wiki. A bunch of programs are now listed green that were yellow or even red previously. Thanks for your comments.
The list is at http://wiki.freedos.org/wiki/index.php/Releases/1.3/Packages WHAT I NEED FROM YOU: - If you agree with the status of these, please reply and indicate "+1" next to them - If you disagree with the status of any of these, please comment in a reply Summary of the yellow and red items: * red (do not include) 1. Archivers/lha 2. Archivers/unrar - for both lha and unrar, note that p7zip can unpack LZH (lha) and RAR (unrar) so the license problems on lha and unrar are moot anyway; people can use p7zip to extract these files. 3. Development/tppatch - no binary, no source code, no license 4. Games/kiloblas 5. Games/lincrawl 6. Games/psrinvad - I still haven't delved into the licenses on these, and I can be convinced to change them. But games are not "core" in the same way that other programs are, so I haven't put any time into figuring these out. 7. Utilities/4dos - does not meet "open source" (see other discussion) 8. Utilities/start - did not find license (not sure this program is really needed anyway) 9. Utilities/uptime - duplicate; will use Chamorro's uptime * yellow (maybe, unsure, needs more investigation) 1. Emulators/meka - Not sure about embedded data, can we distribute it in FreeDOS? Need to look further. 2. Networking/fdnet - files seem to be stamped with conflicting info about licenses * for items that were red or yellow, that have turned to green, I've made notes in the wiki page Jim _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
