Hello, I am trying to package¹ editline <https://troglobit.com/projects/editline/>² for Fedora, which has an unusual license <https://github.com/troglobit/editline/blob/master/LICENSE> that originating from cnews: https://www.openhub.net/licenses/cnews.
Let me quote the full license text below too for completeness. Can this be considered a BSD-ish or similar license? Or does it need a new Fedora license tag (CNEWS?)? Thank you, Jens [1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1867290 Copyright 1992,1993 Simmule Turner and Rich Salz All rights reserved.
