Peter- Can you please clarify the license of libcom32, from the samples directory in syslinux? I am attempting to create .c32 files that are not encumbered by the GPL, but the conio.c file states that is is covered by the GPL. So far, I have resisted linking with libcom32.a, but is it really your intent to license the library code under GPL, and not something more like the LGPL? Additionally, the Makefile in the samples directory also has a GPL he...

Hello. I have Centos 4.4 with the NTFS read-only driver from http://www.linux-ntfs.org/content/view/135/71/ I would like know if someone who installed this can test if Centos 5 can read/write NTFS,.

...f one point (specifically WRT RC5 which was mentioned in the original question) might be worthwhile...because what I should have said originally was that "To the best of my non-legally- admissible knowledge, however, none of the algorithms in the current *OpenSSH* implementation are currently encumbered by patents that would restrict their use in any country." I definitely can't categorically discuss every algorithm which is implemented in OpenSSL. Anyway, I knew that there were issues with RC5 but was reasonably certain that they didn't impact OpenSSH. I took more of a look at some...

Ideally FAT32 but that might be encumbered by Microsoft patents? Maximum size of a FAT16 partition is 2GB. Use mkfs.vfat You can try the "-F 32" if you're not worried about being sued by Microsoft.

...r audio quality. > Sometimes you really do get what you pay for, and this is a perfect example. An alternative explanation might be that open source developers were not particularly motivated to work on improving AAC encoders, because of difficulties experienced when trying to distribute patent-encumbered code.

The ISA & encoding is documented in the comments and diagrams of lib/Target/Lanai/LanaiInstrFormats.td. If that makes sense I'll add a link to this tablegen in docs/CompilerWriterInfo.rst.

Sunil-- Actually, you do not "see that openssl has some patent issues." You do see that OpenSSL implements many algorithms, some of which have been (at various times) been patented or encumbered in some countries. Without knowing what country you're in, none of us here can really give useful advice as to which software/algorithm patents could potentially apply. To the best of my non-legally-admissible knowledge, however, none of the algorithms in the current OpenSSL implementation ar...

Thanks for the interest, Michael. I don't use Ogg, so I'm a little wary that standard FLAC would be left out of any Ogg Frog implementation. But I say that mostly out of ignorance. I have noticed that there seem to be two worlds for FLAC, inside Ogg and outside. It's important to be aware of the fact that many hardware devices support the FLAC format directly, without the

Hello all, I was wondering if CAST5 encryption is currently being added the openssh? It's a steller block cipher. No one's found any weaknesses in it yet and it's free for non profit use.

...given that I cannot afford the cost of the commercial/supported version. Can anyone point me to a summary of what is missing from Centos compared to the Red Hat Enterprise release and therefore may potentially hamper my studies. The site briefly mentions that "Non-free packages, such as those encumbered by a non-redistributable copyright or trademark, are altered to avoid infringement". Thank you in advance for any advise offered. Regards Lee

...ews everyone has made it out to be. Sun did a very good thing by moving java under the GPL, and they should be commended for FINALLY seeing the light after the failure of the DLJ license BUT: 1. Sun did not open all of java under the GPL. There are still several chunks of java which remain license encumbered and will require community workarounds or further moves by Sun to open code. Currently these include the color management code, font rasteriser code, graphics rasteriser code, and several more. 2. Sun is not opening up the Java trademark, so any GPL'd distribution of java will not be called ...

FWIW the patches are at http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.5.6/OpenSSH-95.1.5/patches . As far as I'm aware they're open source and not encumbered by licensing nasties.

Dear friends: Is there a single source for the multimedia applications that are not included with Centos 5: RealPlayer, Mplayer, mplayerplug-in, Acrobat Reader, Java, libdvdcss, etc.?

...of prominent statements along the lines of "all video codecs are covered by patents" and "virtually all codecs are based on patented technology". These statements are carefully engineered FUD spread by the license holders of competing formats in order to discourage the use of unencumbered alternatives. They are careful to avoid naming WHO owns these supposed patents or WHAT is actually patented, because such specific statements would allow the victims of this FUD to petition a court for a declaratory judgment of non-infringement. This FUD is particularly effective because there _is...

Does the reason Theora is relatively safe from patent infringement lawsuit have more to do with it actually not being encumbered, or is it because its use is decentralized? For example, FreeType is not patent-free, nor is Linux, yet they succeed because on the one hand, they are open source, and those who maintain them do not guarantee anything regarding patents, it is up to each individual user to deal with those issues; a...
