This is an OpenPGP/MIME signed message (RFC 2440 and 3156) --------------enigA0A3AF35AE0B49F2F823E1A5 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="------------030705090501010006020301" This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------030705090501010006020301 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Included is an update to more accurately reflect the license (which is the Tcl/Tk license[0], more on that in a minute) and removal of myself as maintainer if that's desired. Now, as to the license. If you look in license terms in the file section in the working directory and compare it to the Tcl/TK license linked to from Tcl's official website, you'll see they are a match. If you search for it on the FSF or OSI websites, you'll find it is not endorsed or certified by either group, though it is endorsed/certified by the CopyFree group[1][2]. That is the reasoning behind changing it from "BSD" to Tcl/TK and grouping it as CopyFree only. While it may be compatible with such OSI and FSF licenses, without such certification or endorsement it makes no sense to group it with the GPL and similar copyleft licenses without those endorsements.
