    Can someone clarify the total confusion I have about aspell, it's
    removal from stable with woody release 3.0r2, and non-DSFG-gness of
    it's licence.

    http://www.debian.org/News/2003/20031121a

    http://master.debian.org/~joey/3.0r2/
    says "The license incorrectly says that it's LGPL but it is in fact a
    unique license which is non-DFSG-free."

    But there it is in "Accepted packages" section, while in DWN it's in
    "Removed packages" section.

    So is it removed or not after all?
    What is that unique licence?
