Hi, Today all sork modules are with Apache License 1.1-like license [1]. This license seems not clearly free for Debian [2] and this could be a problem to have packages for this modules in Debian. Please read this thread [3] on debian-devel list to have explanations. To sum up, I hope convincing authors to do one of following actions: - switch license to Apache license 2.0 like [4], - switch licens to 3-clause BSD [5] or Horde BSD-like [6], - switch license to GPL [7]. Note that dual licensing could be a solution too. Perhaps, I should ask this in all (core|drivers) developers listed in CREDITS file (but copyright in LICENSE file is for "The Horde Project" and copyright in PHP files are for Eric Rostetter).
