I finally had time to deal with this issue:
SmoothWall GPL is licenced under the GNU GPL.
Portions of SmoothWall, including the installer and the ADSL management utilities, are licenced under modified licences which are available on application. No modifications to either the installation libraries or binaries and re-distribution of modified binaries based on the installer is permitted without the owners permission. The owners of this code are Lawrence Manning (lawrence@smoothwall.org) and Daniel Goscomb (dang@smoothwall.org).
With those restrictions, those restricted parts of SmoothWall are not even free software any more. I should talk with the main SmoothWall developers and ask them to change this; can anyone tell me who they are, and how to reach them?
Also, I'd like someone to send me some basic information about SmoothWall, so I can avoid making foolish mistakes when I write?
Janet, SmoothWall should not now be listed in the Directory at all, because it is not entirely free software.
I am aware of this. 0.9.8 installer was released under GPL. The COPYING file for 0.9.9 beta prefixes the standard v.2 GPL with:
Does anyone have a copy of version 0.9.8? Please see if that version contains, under the GPL, older free versions of some or all of these non-free programs. If it does, could you tell me which parts of the non-free code it has, and which parts it does not have?
