Description Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2013-05-22 09:58:30 UTC
The ebuild currently has LICENSE="as-is". According to the FAQ at <http://qrp.quakeone.com/faq/index.php?faq=54#2>:

   What is the license on the QRP textures and can I use the textures for
   commercial as well as non-commercial usage?

   The textures are copyright by their respective authors and, collectively,
   this project. These textures are free to use in any project, be it
   commercial or non-commercial, on the condition that the work or the
   derivative product mentions the URL (http://qrp.quakeone.com) and name of
   this project (Quake Revitalization Project) in the credits. In case your
   project does not have a suitable credits section, you must include with
   your product a file titled "read-me" or "licensing". No exceptions. For
   any further questions, contact us.

I suggest that we add this as license file.

@Licenses team: If we assume that the .tga files are the source code, does the above qualify for the MISC-FREE-DOCS license group?
