[GRASS5] Licensing problem

[Bernhard Reiter]

Markus by accident found out that there is a potential 
licensing problem left that we need to deal with.

It probably affects all versions of GRASS
and especially the upcoming 5.0.3.


We need to:

	a) replace ./src/include/color.h

	Method 1: Check if there once was a public domain version
	with this file and use that one.

	Method 2:
	The contents itself a simple.

	Glynn: Would it make sense to rewrite this and
	reshuffle the stuff with colors.h into one file anyway?
	If yes, would you be willing to do it?


	b)
	Temporarily remove r.agnps50 from GRASS and 
	move it into non-free until we can resolve this issue.

	Step i): Remove it from the release branch.

	Step ii): Contact the AGNPS people for clarification 
			of the copyright.

Can somebody help with "Method 1" and b i),
then I'm willing to do b ii).
