Subject: Relicensing zipfile routines that are part of figlet
User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.19 (2009-01-05)

Hello;

There are several source files part of the figlet package[1] that 
are under a non-free license requiring notice of modifications to 
the code to be sent to you within 30 days.

I'm wondering if you'd be willing to consider relicensing this 
code under a more "free" license?  The code in question is here:

  ftp://ftp.figlet.org/pub/figlet/program/unix/figlet222/crc.c
  ftp://ftp.figlet.org/pub/figlet/program/unix/figlet222/crc.h
  ftp://ftp.figlet.org/pub/figlet/program/unix/figlet222/inflate.c
  ftp://ftp.figlet.org/pub/figlet/program/unix/figlet222/inflate.h
  ftp://ftp.figlet.org/pub/figlet/program/unix/figlet222/zipio.c
  ftp://ftp.figlet.org/pub/figlet/program/unix/figlet222/zipio.h

Thanks,
Ray
