Description Alexander Berntsen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-03-25 11:06:02 UTC 
The HOMEPAGE is just some forum that links to a Wiki which is down. I can't find any information, so I assume all-rights-reserved is correct.

It is hosted at SourceForge, though:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/deng/files/Resources/jDoom/

I wonder how this goes together with the SF terms of use, which generally require OSI compliant licensing.
Comment 2 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2014-05-01 18:37:03 UTC 
From jdrp.box/info in the 20070404 version:

   version: N/A
   summary: 3D models and special effects for jDoom
   contact: danij@dengine.net
   author: Daniel Swanson et al. Packed by Harry 04/04/2007

   copyright: Copyright (c) 2007 Daniel Swanson
   license: Free for non-commercial use
  
   readme = "The jDoom Resource Pack represents many years' worth of
   work. Several people have contributed 3D models, skins and particle
   effects."

I've therefore changed the ebuild to LICENSE="free-noncomm". Feel free to reopen if you disagree.
