+# There was some DFSG license debate about MESA in the past, on Debian bug 131997.
+# This was primarily as the original license body did not provide the right to modify.
+# Marc Kilgard, the upstream author, ultimately clarified this on the Debian bug:
+# http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=131997#71
+# Reproduced here below for reference.
+
+This program is freely distributable without licensing fees and
+is provided without guarantee or warrantee expressed or implied.
+This program is -not- in the public domain.
+
+Regarding the right to modify and distribute this software:

+| Yes, that's fine.

+| Were you the losers that sent me email about a a "bug" filed against
+| GLUT's licensee? I tell that story occasionally as an example of
+| what idiots there are in the world.
+|
+| Please don't reply and waste my time with your GNU zealotry/stupidity.
