1 Hi,
2
3 I happened to remember that we once decided that mod_fastcgi has a
4 non-free license. Therefore I was surprised to notice today that it
5 seems it is in Debian.

7 Seems like at some point upstream changed their license:
8 http://www.fastcgi.com/drupal/node/6?q=node/14
9
10 (before it had a clause that you could only use it to implement the
11 fastcgi protocol)
12
13 The upstream project seems a bit dead. We're currently using a source
14 snapshot that is no longer available online (but probably better than
15 using the even older release code).
16
17 However I think we can change the license and have it in @free.
