Dear developers, 
I am contacting you regarding the license concerns about the w3af tarball 
distributed 
by the project. 

I am trying to create the package of w3af  for Fedora:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=579428

As part of the review I have asked for the legal suitability of the package for 
Fedora.
It was pointed out by Tom "spot" Callaway that there might be some legal 
complications
regarding bundling of incompatible licenses (GPLv2 / GPLv3) together.
http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/legal/2010-April/001213.html

Please I would like to ask you how this issue is dealt with in the packages in 
other
distributions? 

Do you have some agreements with the authors of upstream projects which code 
was used as libraries / plugins ?

Has somebody raised concern about bundling the w3af distribution tarball with 
code with possibly incompatible licenses?

Thank you
Michal Ambroz
