address@hidden [Savannah-hackers] submission of Cameleon : an IDE for OCaml - savannah.nongnu.org

[Mathieu Roy]

Hi,

Can you tell me your point of view on this licensing clause.
We previously had issues with the project mldonkey, and address@hidden
is member of this project, as they we're distributing non-free content
along with mldonkey for a while to "protect" edonkey system.
