Hi,

Need clarification on the License to be used for nesC [1] spec file:

The compiler is provided under GPLv2. But, the Java classes that
provide support for reading nesC's XML output are Copyright (c)
2004-2006 Intel Corporation. These were released under the Intel Open
Source License (now deprecated) [2]. In the latest CVS tree, it has
been updated:

http://nescc.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/nescc/nesc/COPYRIGHT?revision=1.3&view=markup

22 The Java classes that provide support for reading nesC's XML output are
23 	Copyright (c) 2004-2006 Intel Corporation
24 	
25 	These files are provided under a dual BSD/GPLv2 license. When using or
26 	redistributing these files, you may do so under either license.
27 	

So, should I use "GPLv2 and GPLv2/BSD" in the License section of the .spec file?

Appreciate your inputs,

Thanks!

SK
