Hm, yea, this is not GPL at all. But I'm not sure this is public domain, since we have author and copyright (1997-2010 by Dave Coffin). @license: any ideas? If not I'd better created dcraw license file... (In reply to comment #1) > Hm, yea, this is not GPL at all.

I'm not sure about the "most of the code is public" part, but what seems to be clear is that we can choose option (b) and distribute the package under GPL-2. BTW, the Debian folks have discussed it too, see <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=431883>, especially message #65. Thank you Ulrich. Then current license works for me. |
