Hi,

Short intro: I'm a Linux enthusiast and developer. I mainly focus on writing 
kernel drivers and maintaining packages for Fedora.

I'm the scummvm maintainer of Fedora.

We have a script which checks if upstream sources change from the one in our 
look a side cache, this has happened recently with BASS-Floppy.zip, the new 
version has the following changes:
-sky.cpt removed (neutral)
-changes to readme
  -reference to CD replaced with floppy, good!
  -right to modify removed (BAD!)

-notice that the cd version is unchanged and still contains a readme which
  gives the right to modify.


Also lure of the temptress comes without any license text at all, since its 
also from revolution, I hope that they are willing to allow its redistribution 
under the same terms as beneath a steel sky. Has anyone from scummvm contacted 
them asking them for a clear license statement?

Thanks & Regards,

Hans
