    1998 CNRI license compatibility

    I'm interested in updating the very old kerberos extension module.
    However, the code dates to 1998 and is licensed under what appears to be
    a pre-python-1.6 CNRI license. Does anyone have recommendations on
    whether additions and changes to the old code can be licensed under a
    newer OSI-approved license? There is information on GPL, CNRI 1.6, and
    python license compatibility, as well as a history of the python
    licenses in the current python license file. But I can't find
    suggestions on what to do with such an old version of the CNRI license.


    Dec-1999/System/krb5module-0.1.tar.gz

    Dec-1999/System/krb5module.READ ME

    Any ideas will be appreciated.

    Many thanks,

    -John R.

    Will it build against heimdal or is this module only available
    for MIT Kerberos?

    Ciao, Michael.
