We describe the exception in the 'LICENSE' file; 'COPYING' usually gets the GPL or LGPL, unmodified (the GPL text states that it can be copied and distributed, but not modified; keeping the exception text separate is just an easy way to make sure we don't "modify" it). And, oops, I see that the 2.0.1 source distribution doesn't include that file. Sorry for this omission. I'll package up an -r1 release for 2.0.1 that contains that file.

It simply forms the test harness, which you don't need and isn't packaged into any installed libraries. Everything else under gnu/ is GPL with exception, including the GNU Crypto tests themselves. For the CVS sources, this extends to all the sources except the Mauve harness; we rewrote the JCE and JAAS from scratch (these sources are also distributed with Classpath now).

This is also from BouncyCastle in 2.0.x, and is licensed under BouncyCastle's license. BouncyCastle, at least at the time we got those sources, did not include any header in the source files. I thought I had modified all the BC sources to include their copyright disclaimer at the top, so we could keep track of that, but I guess I missed that one. I will include that header in the -r1 release, too. Doug> I'm assuming the non-source files are gpl since that's what Doug> COPYING says. Doug> Is this right? No, as explained above.
