ok, I'm moving this to patch-ready. A commit references this bug: Author: marino Date: Thu Sep 25 20:52:28 UTC 2014 New revision: 369295 URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/ports/369295 Log: java/java3d: Set to dual GPLv2 and MIT licensing PR: 193186 Submitted by: pfg@ After examining the LICENSE files in the existing tarball, Pedro came to the conclusion that the license is a combination between GPLv2 and some MIT-like licenses. The package is redistributable; the outdated restriction is probably left over from a previous version, so it has been removed. Changes: head/java/java3d/Makefile Thanks! |
