Hello again everyone,
I just got word from the X.Org team that all the developers who worked
on the files that were under the GLX Public License have given their
permission for their contributions to be used under the new permissive
terms. I believe that all the code in X.Org that was originally
Hello everyone,
As some people here have noticed, SGI's update of the SGI Free License B is a
really great contribution to free software, and it does a lot to help resolve
this bug. Unfortunately, it's not a complete solution; there are still a few
legal loose ends that need to be tied up. I'
Yes.
The two remaining fles under GLX Public license are these:
GL/glx/glxext.c
hw/dmx/glxProxy/glxext.c
Presumably they will also be relicensed, the question is how - SGI's
press release doesn't mention this. I've emailed the FSF asking if they
know the details.

That's incorrect. Version 1.1 says, "SGI may publish revised and/or new
versions of the License
from time to time, each with a distinguishing version number. Once Covered Code
has been
published under a particular version of the License, Recipient may, for the
duration of the
license, continue

This is great news. Bug should be changed to deal only with GLX Public
License.

Version 1.1 of the FreeB license was replaced by version 2.0, which
mirrors the well-known X11 license. Under the terms of version 1.1,
"once Covered Code has been published under a particular version of the
License, Recipient may, for the duration of the License, continue to use
it under the terms
I'll start working on this as of today. May take some time, though.

In the Hardy release of Ubuntu, this bug seems to affect these packages:

/media/disk/usr/share/doc/xserver-xorg-core/

Putting back to Confirmed, also affects X.org. Most of the GLX code is
either under GLX Public License or SGI Free Software License B, which
are both non-free (both non-DFSG-free and non-FSF-free).

Why should it be re-opened? XFree86 is no longer supported in Ubuntu,
and the xserver-xfree86 package that you find in the repositories is
merely a transitional package for Xorg.
