Thanks for your interest in treetool.  While treetool is "free"; some
portions are copyright the University of Illlinois.  I am currently working
on getting permission from them to obtain clear rights to the package; in
the meantime, I cannot place the program under the GNU license (which is my
desire).  I do have permission to distribute the program, so you are
welcome to include it under the "non-free" area of Debian Linux.

When these issues are cleared up, I will place the package under the GNU
license and let you know.

Mike McCaughey
