Bug#617613: freecad in fact does not link to incompatible libraries

[Sergey Kurdakov]

Hi,

I'm not at all about to prove to you, I just point out

that there is official letter

http://mailman.coin3d.org/pipermail/coin-discuss/2011-November/018377.html

after that code is move to bitbucket - which is mentioned in letter.

the bitbucket page has https://bitbucket.org/Coin3D/coin/wiki/Home bsd
license in it is main page

The code which is moved to bitbucket has a cover of version 3.1.2 and
letter states that all following code is under the BSD license.

so if to make any conclusion without contacts to authors that means,
that code since version 3.1.2 is under BSD license.

Regards
Sergey
