Licensing: Abolish LICENCE.WAIVERS
The only existing waiver was for the AGPL, and the GPLv3 which we are now using has an AGPL-compatibility clause already in it. Signed-off-by: Ian Jackson <ijackson@chiark.greenend.org.uk>

- LICENCE WAIVERS FOR ADNS
- ========================
-
-See GPL-vs-LGPL, section 2. This file contains reproductions of
-waivers I have granted to allow adns to be mixed with certain other
-programs whose licenses are not GPL compatible.
-
-
-IMPORTANT NOTES
----------------
-
- * Not all of the code in adns was written by me. The programs
- `fanftest', `adnslogres' and `adnsheloex' are (partially) copyright
- Tony Finch and to that extent are not covered by the waivers. I
- believe - but do not warrant - that the rest of adns is (at the
- time of writing, 19th of November 2005) entirely mine, but please
- check the copyright notices on the individual files.
-
- * These waivers apply only in the specified circumstances.
-
- * The waivers listed in this file LICENCE.WAIVERS in a particular
- version of adns also apply to versions of adns released previously
- to the one with the LICENCE.WAIVERS file. But they do not
- necessarily apply to future versions of adns.

-
- When adns is combined with
- Infomine (http://infomine.ucr.edu)
- or a work derived from it, I am happy for you to treat adns as if
- it were licenced to you (and all third parties) under the GNU GPL
- v2 with additionally the clause 2d from the Affero General Public
- Licence version 1 (as published today at
- http://www.gnu.org/licenses/agpl.html).
