https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D279111 --- Comment #1 from david@catwhisker.org --- I have no objection to adding a LICENSE to x11-wm/piewm. That said, it is not obvious to me that the MIT license is appropriate; ind= eed, it's not obvious to me what license would be appropriate. Scanning through= the files in the distribution, I find each of the following at least once: * Copyright (C) 1989 by Don Hopkins. All rights reserved. * Copyright 1989 Massachusetts Institute of Technology * copyright message is preserved. There is no warranty, and no author * copyright notice and this permission notice appear in supporting * Portions Copyright 1991 by the University of Maryland * that the above copyright notice appear in all copies and that both that .SH COPYRIGHT /* Copyright 1987, Massachusetts Institute of Technology */ /** Copyright 1990 by Solbourne Computer Inc. = **/ /** Copyright 1988 by Evans & Sutherland Computer Corporation, = **/ /** copies and that both that copyright notice and this permis- = **/ /** granted, provided that the above copyright notice appear in all = **/ /** Portions Copyright 1989 by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology = **/ copyright 1989 Hewlett-Packard Company and the Massachusetts Institute of Portions copyright 1988 Evans & Sutherland Computer Corporation; portions (Obtained from within the unpacked distribution files & running: grep -hwi copyright * | sort -u Which is quite crude... but illustrative.) For comparison, I also see: grep -hwi license * | sort -u produces no output. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
