Re: GPLv3 and Hurd? (also a possible license violation)

[Thomas Bushnell BSG]

Ok, thanks Thomas.

First you list the files with the UU copyright, including advertising
clause.  Roland is going to ask Utah about those.

Then you list some with BSG copyright, including advertising clause.  We
already have permission from Berkeley to remove the clause from such
files.  Can someone take charge of doing so?

This does not contain any noxious clauses, and is already GPL-compatible as it 
stands.

Likewise, this is GPL compatible as it stands.
