Tcllib has three licenses:

tcllib/license.terms: BSD-style, ok.
tcllib/modules/textutil/expander_license.txt:
BSD-style, ok.

tcllib/modules/comm/comm.LICENSE: Seems BSD-ish,
paragraphs 2 and 5 seem problematic.

Is there something that can be done to clean this up?

Thanks,

Stu

    Stuart, thanks for reminder on this. We had a discussion on
    tcllib-devel about this around end of May, beginning of June
    this year, but it died off when I got distracted. I have now
    restarted the discussion on tcllib-devel. When it concludes I
    will post a summary here. For taking part iin the discussion
    please subscribe to tcllib-devel. The subject of the past and
    now discussion is 'discrepancy in original intent and current
    status wrt licensing'.
