Secure testing team - Sep 2007 - License of scripts hostet at Secure Testing

Hi you guys,

unfortunately, the scripts hosted in your SVN [1] mostly do not contain 
any licensing information. We at Gentoo Security might want to re-use 
some of your code [2] and are interested especially in bin/updatelist 
and bin/check-new-issues. But getting a definitive answer for all files 
would nice for the future.

According to the SVN log, relevant authors for the two mentioned files 
are joeyh and stef-guest.

Thanks a lot,
Robert

[1] svn://svn.debian.org/svn/secure-testing
[2] For those interested: I know your security tracking is very powerful
    and features everything up to a DSA. I''m only interested in the
    "auditing" part from CVE synchronization leading up to a NFU/BUG
    decision.

My scripts in the secure-testing repo are all licensed under GPL 2 or
later.

Like Joey''s, my scripts in the secure-testing repository are licensed 
under GPL v2 or later.

Maybe the other authors (mainly Florian, who else?) could declare the 
same, so that we can add one note for all scripts.

Cheers,
Stefan

Thanks a lot for the clarification, Joey and Stefan (and thanks for 
sharing the code :-)

Regards,
Robert

PS: Should have checked the subject twice.
