[Bitpim-devel] BitPim license change

[Roger B. <ro...@ro...>]

With the 0.7 release of BitPim, the license will be changing to
the Open Source License.

I have contacted all the copyright holders and they have all agreed.
If anyone can see any issues, please speak up now.

What brought this on was someone doing a BitPim0.62 for vx6000
that stretched some provisions of the Artistic License that
BitPim was under.  That wouldn't have been too big a deal except
for two problems.  One is that their "bug and portability fixes"
actually introduced new bugs, and that their version is indistinguishable
from the real BitPim (there is a one line change in the about box
only).  I am the one that ends up with the emails and support
requests so this gets to be a big problem.
