Link is here http://www.truecrypt.org/legal/license It says TrueCrypt License Version 3.0 not 7.0? The license version is 3.0. It's for software version truecrypt-7.0a. Does this license look ok to everyone? It looks very similar to the truecrypt-2.8 license that we already have. If yes, I'm assuming it's going to go in the same groups as the prior truecrypt licenses that are already in Portage? I don't see any truecrypt* license in profiles/license_groups so far. But to answer the question more generally: A new version of a license should only be added to groups like FSF-APPROVED or OSI-APPROVED if it has been approved by these organisations. On the other hand, for groups like MISC-FREE, it is as you assume. There the presence of a previous version is a good indication that the new version should also be added (given that it's similar enough to the previous version). Ulrich Ok. Given this information, I will be committing this license along with the new truecrypt version later tonight unless someone raises a concern.
