   "... originally released Wine under the same MIT License as the X
   Window System, but owing to concern about proprietary versions
   of Wine not contributing their changes back to the core project,
   work as of March 2002 has used the LGPL"

2002 or recent ?   Are we considering real old news ?

	echo #wine* # linux-winetools wine wine-doors

If a wine user who doesnt like GPL, creates & uses send-pr for eg
  	emulators/wine-rewind
it could divorce lists from debating licence issue :-)
