CrackLib was originally licensed with a variant of the Artistic
license. In the interests of wider acceptance and more modern
licensing, it was switched with the original author's blessing to GPL
v2.

This approval was carried out in email discussions in 2005, and has
been reconfirmed as of 2007-10-01 with the following email from Alec
Muffett.
