I have been unable to contact Mr. Silver. However, I posted to the

of the golly authors. Is this satisfactory? I suspect that it is not,
but I'd like to have a semi-official opinion on it before I ask Tom to
pester Mr. Silver about a license change.
It is not satisfactory, it merely confirms the existing terms. It is
worth noting that I also attempted to contact Mr. Silver via email in
December and have yet to receive a response.
Assuming that the email below isn't sufficient, and assuming that
Mr.
Silver is willing to change the license, would a chnage from "It may be
freely copied and/or modified..." to "It may be freely copied,
distributed, and/or modified..." result in the license being
acceptable? I'd prefer not to go through this process more than once.
Yes, that would do the trick.
