--- Comment #65 from Tom "spot" Callaway <tcallawa at redhat.com>  2009-09-20 01:50:13 EDT ---
It's not non-free, because of how it is worded. You may remember that we had a
similar license from Sun which was non-free, because it said:

"You acknowledge that Software is not designed, licensed or intended for use in
the design, construction, operation or maintenance of any nuclear facility."

The reason it was non-free was because of the use of the term "licensed". This
DES cipher license does not use the term "licensed", it simply uses "DESIGNED
OR INTENDED". The license does not forbid use in any of these conditions, it
merely states that the software was not designed or intended for those
conditions.

Lifting FE-Legal.

P.S. Orcan, thanks for your continued due diligence here. :)
