Hi,
   I was wondering what the licence terms were on the bluez-firmware
tarball, can anybody say?

   The only 'licence' I see there is a GPLv2 file but surely that does not
cover the firmware files?

   What I have done is create a program to load the broadcom firmware for
NetBSD, and have created a pkgsrc package to bind it all together, so I'm
wondering if I should limit the redistribution of

	a) the bluez-firmware-1.2.tar.gz file, and

	b) the binary package which will contain BCM2033-MD.hex,
	BCM2033-FW.bin and BCM-LEGAL.txt

since it is possible that either could end up on mirror sites.

thanks,
iain
