Hi all,

tktable package is newly under review; can someone clarify to me how
to identify its license? (license file attached)

In particular, i have a doubt about these "special notes":

*************************************************************
SPECIAL NOTES:

This software is also falls under the bourbon_ware clause v2:

 This software is free, but should you find this software useful in your
 daily work and would like to compensate the author, donations in the form
 of aged bourbon and scotch are welcome by the author.  The user may feel
 exempt from this clause if they are below drinking age or think the
author
 has already partaken of too many drinks.
*************************************************************

Thanks.
