"As explained in dffe0b3, the RSA-MD-licensed file md5.c can be relicensed easily because the third-party code that was licensed under RSA-MD is eliminated by now." -- Bastian Germann <bage@debian.org> in GitHub issue #769 The commit referenced was part of GitHub PR #767 and was authored by Bastian Germann. I reviewed the commit history on this file. I concurred with Bastian's original assessment that the relevant detail was Rob Earhart's code, and Bastian agreed with my analysis in the bug. The next step was confirming that the MD5 code that Rob Earhart contributed was/is licensed under the same license as the rest of the project. This is a reasonable assumption, as he was one of the main authors of the original code, and everything else he contributed was under that license. However, to avoid ambiguity or assumptions, I emailed Rob Earhart. He responded today, confirming: On 2023-06-28 12:14, Rob Earhart wrote: > Any code I wrote for the Cyrus SASL project has my permission to be > used under that main license. Fixes #769 Signed-off-by: Richard Laager <rlaager@wiktel.com>
