Copies of other licences.

Parts of Votorola may be released under other, non-Votorola licences. Copies of those licences may be stored here for reference. Where the licence is contained in scope, storage here is optional.

In some cases a licence is uncontained in scope, meaning that it may have an affect on other parts of Votorola, or on Votorola as a whole. In all such cases, a copy of the licence must be stored here. Moreover, any part that carries that licence must explicitly link to it, or refer to it, by file name. A grep of the codebase for that file name, then, will reveal all parts that carry that licence.

One potentially uncontained licence is GNU General Public. It applies only to JavaMaildir, which is a dynamically-bound library jar (so its legal binding is unclear).

Another potentially uncontained licence is GNU Library General Public.
