LDP Weekly News
2002-01-08

   by David Merrill

Relicensing Continues

   We continue to receive document updates that include a relicensing in
   response to Debian packaging issues. Much of the LDP will likely be
   removed from the base Debian distribution if they are not licensed
   under a Free license. Almost all the new documents are using the GFDL,
   so hopefully licensing issues will be behind us soon.

How do we approach the study of Muad'Dib's father? A man of surpassing
warmth and surprising coldness was the Duke Leto Atreides. Yet, many
facts open the way to this Duke: his abiding love for his Bene Gesserit
lady; the dreams he held for his son; the devotion with which men served
him. You see him there -- a man snared by Destiny, a lonely figure with
his light dimmed behind the glory of his son. Still, one must ask: What
is the son but an extension of the father?
