But Debian distributes OpenMotif under this license, next to non-free<br>
software for which sources are not available.</blockquote><div><br></div><div>OpenMotif's license says:</div><div><br></div><div>"The rights granted under this license are limited solely to distribution and sublicensing of the Contribution(s) on, with, or for operating systems which are themselves Open Source programs."</div><div><br></div><div>That makes OpenMotif not DFSG-free, nor OSI-open, nor FSF-free, precisely because its license violates clause #9. But since Debian is copying and distributing the software on and with Debian and for use on Debian, they are still within the terms of the license. If you decide to download OpenMotif from Debian and run it on Windows or Oracle Solaris or z/OS or what have you, that's between you and the Open Group.</div><div><br></div><div>-- </div><div><div>John Cowan <a href="http://vrici.lojban.org/~cowan">http://vrici.lojban.org/~cowan</a> <a href="mailto:cowan@ccil.org">cowan@ccil.org</a></div><div>Adam [...] did not want the apple for the apple's sake, he wanted it only</div><div>because it was forbidden.
