Ouch, these files use the Plan 9 license, which is not free according to the FSF:
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/plan-nine.html
Nevertheless, Plan 9 is now distributed under the Lucent public license, which
is free according to the OSI:
http://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9/license.html
The change of license has been done between the third and fourth edition of Plan 9:
http://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9/about.html
The old Plan 9 license has been replaced everywhere by the Lucent public
license, to the point that I had difficulties to find a copy
(http://svn.pardus.org.tr/uludag/trunk/pisi/licenses/PLAN9).
Can we assume that the files have been automagically relicensed to the Lucent
public license since this is what
http://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9dist/download.html now indirectly refers to, or
do we have to contact the copyright holders to as them to relicense their work?
Have a nice day,
