About the GPL/SSL clause:
On Thu, 17 Apr 2003 I contacted Olaf Titz about the GPL/SSL licensing
issue and suggested him to add the exception clause:
> As the main author of CIPE, are you favorable to such a license
> extension? If you do, all people who contributed code to pkcipe also
> have to agree.
He answered me on Sat, 19 Apr 2003 and was favorable to the license change:
> This is what I'll do. Can you give me a pointer to another package
> with a similar solution, I'd like to get the wording right.
>
> To my knowledge there is only a single other contributor to PKCIPE:
> Lukasz Engel <Lukasz.Engel@softax.com.pl>
He then contacted Lukasz on Wed, 07 May 2003:
> Therefore I ask you to approve that I may change the licensing to
> GPL plus the following paragraph (wording taken from wget):
Lukasz answered on Thu, 08 May 2003 (but I was only notified on Thu,
12 Jun 2003):
> I have no objections changing the license.
