The original +versions as distributed upstream contain text from the RFCs embedded as +comments, and that text is covered by the Internet Society license which +does not meet the Debian Free Software Guidelines. (It doesn't permit +creation and distribution of modified versions.) Accordingly, Debian +cannot include the original versions of these files in Debian packages. + +Instead, in this directory are equivalent versions of those files with all +of the text taken from IETF RFCs or Internet-Drafts removed and only the +functional schema definition retained. + +Where possible, the schema files as distributed by the OpenLDAP project +are retained. This is only done where RFC or Internet-Draft text is +embedded in the schema file and covered by the Internet Society license. |
