Dear list readers,
A package I put on review can utilize dxflib:
http://www.qcad.org/dxflib_downloads.html
This license file ships in the tarball:
http://www.geofrogger.net/review/dxflib_commercial_license.txt
What looks like a proprietary license, is suddenly interupted by:
"NOTE: dxflib Open Source Edition is licensed under the terms of the
GPL and not under this Agreement. If Licensee has, at any time,
developed all (or any portions of) the Application(s) using RibbonSoft's
publicly licensed dxflib Open Source Edition, Licensee must comply
with RibbonSoft's requirements and license such Application(s)
(or any portions derived there from) under the terms of the Free Software
Foundation's GNU General Public License version 2 (the "GPL") a copy of

..."
The headers in the various file mention GPLv2. With all the rubble in the
license, around mentioning it was GPLv2, is this certainly free software?
Thanks in advance,
Volker Fröhlich
