This package fails to meet the terms of the DFSG on at least #1, #3, #4, so
has been placed into non-free.

This is the Debian Linux prepackaged version of xpostitplus.

This package was put together by Karl Sackett <krs@debian.org>,
from sources obtained from:

	http://www.sni.net/~mjhammel/source/XPostitPlus-2.3.1.tar.gz

23rd Oct 2000: applied i18n patch from: 
	
	ftp://ftp.ipc.chiba-u.ac.jp/pub/pub.yamaga/xpostit/

This is included in the diff as "xpostitplus-2.3+i18n.patch"

From David's Version 3.3.1 version of xpostit (which is not the version
from which my version has evolved, BTW):

Copyright 1991 by David A. Curry

Permission to use, copy, modify, distribute, and sell this software and its

the above copyright notice appear in all copies and that both that copyright
notice and this permission notice appear in supporting documentation.  The

I've never contacted David about this software, so I can't say exactly what
the copyright is.  Since David released the code for general use, I'll just
say that you can use the software for non-commercial use in any way you see
fit as long as any modification you make are not redistributed without first
contacting me about them.  I only make this provision so I don't get
swamped with email about someone else's version for which I have no
knowledge or control over.  If you'd like to make a commercial version of
this software, contact me.  I just want to make sure I get a copy of any
future releases (and that I get a little credit for having done some work
on this).  :-)

If you wish to include it on a CD-ROM (or in any other media) of 
freely-available software you may do so as long as the source is also 
distributed in its original form and any compiled versions you make are clearly 
marked as yours.  Again, I just do this to make sure I don't end up
supporting someone elses work.

I think this is basically what the GNU CopyLeft says, isn't it?  Dammit
