(1/28/99) Due to a little prodding from Sunsite, I've decided on
the ARTISTIC LICENSE (see the LICENSE file) for Conquest.
Just FYI.

Version 1 of the Artistic license is not permitted in Fedora. Which
version is this under?

As noted in the OSI link above, artistic 1.0 has legal issues and is a
deprecated license. It is not permitted for new packages for quite
sometime now though packages that were earlier included still are there
while some folks were trying to get them relicensed after discussions
with the various upstream projects. Fedora 10 will have no more artistic
1.0 licensed packages anymore.
