[Fedora-legal-list] Nmap Public Source License (NPSL) Version 0.92

[Ben Cotton]

After review, Fedora has determined that the Nmap Public Source
License (NPSL) Version 0.92[1] is not acceptable for use in Fedora. We
have updated our "Bad License" list[2] to include NPSL. No software
under that license may be included in Fedora (including EPEL and
COPRs).

The license includes restrictions on "proprietary software companies",
which is a field of endeavor restriction contrary to the Open Source
Definition[3]. If future versions of the NPSL are released, they will
be re-evaluated for use in Fedora.
