It would be important to me as the TYPO3-debian-maintainer, that the
TYPO3 core is free of software compontents with licenses that are not compatible with
the Debian Free Software Guidelines (DFSG).
As Debian does not allow such software in its main repository, i would either
have to remove these components from the core or i must request the removal of TYPO3
from debian repository as a whole. I'm not sure if this would be in the interest of the
TYPO3 community.
So please stay with software thats licenses are listed as DFSG compatible.
For a list of these licenses look at this page:
