Description Christopher Key 2010-10-08 12:00:06 UTC 
The LaTeX Project Public License (LPPL) [1] is frequently used by LaTeX
packages.  This patch adds versions 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3c of the LPPL to the
BSD ports licence framework.  The licence compatiblity is based upon [2], and
is assumed the same for each version.  The permissions are based upon a
non-lawyers reading of the licenses [1], but should be checked by someone
familiar with the area.  The criteria for adding auto-accept were not known, so
this hasn't been added either.

Comment 1 Christopher Key 2010-10-09 19:41:06 UTC 
  Further research shows that the LaTeX Public License version 1.3 went 
has been through four evolutions: 1.3, 1.3a, 1.3b, 1.3c.  These 
apparently only differ very slightly, but may still need to be 
differentiated.  If so, the attached patch adds LPPL13, LPPL13a, LPPL13b.
