<pre wrap="">I confirm that my past contributions of deegree to OSGeo-Live may be
used under the current OSGeo-Live license guidelines.
I confirm that my future contributions will be compatible with the
OSGeo-Live license guidelines at the time of contribution.
The current OSGeo-Live license guidelines are:

Quickstarts

Overviews
* A version of LGPL for install scripts
* One of the OSI approved Open Source licenses for installed

I have checked the contents of OSGeo-Live Project Overviews
& Quickstarts for deegree, and as far as I can tell, all source material
can be legally included under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0
Unported License for Project Overviews, and Creative Commons

The <Project Overview / Quickstart> incorporates content from
