Description Kent Fredric (IRC: kent\n) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2020-05-22 14:17:16 UTC
I *think* I can fix this, its unclear. The stuff in jquery.js in doc/ is the worst.

I *think* this means:

> || ( MIT GPL-2 )
> || ( MIT GPL-1 )

I *think* that compresses down to:

> || ( Artistic GPL-1+ )
> || ( MIT ( GPL-1 GPL-2 ))

And in turn, compresses down to:

> || ( ( Artistic MIT ) ( GPL-1+ GPL-1 GPL-2 ) )

But that seems kinda nonsensical.

Hmm, no, in the former uncondensed form, you can technically accept:

"MIT GPL-2", and the top part will be accepted due to GPL-1+, and the bottom part will be accepted due to MIT, and you're not forced to accept Artistic-due-to-MIT. So only the middle condensation works.

If you don't accept MIT, then you must accept GPL-2 and GPL-1.
