Drupal's CVS usage policy clearly specifies that non-GPL code cannot be uploaded to cvs.drupal.org.

Following files are not GPL and should be removed from CVS repository:

php-typogrify.php
smartypants.php
unicode-conversion.php

php-typogrify.php is hosted on the wordpress plugins site at http://svn.wp-plugins.org/wp-typogrify/trunk/php-typogrify.php

According to http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/about/ "Your plugin must be GPL Compatible." so can we assume it is? If not, I'll contact the author and ask what the situation is.

php-smartypants isn't gpl from what I can tell, so this should be removed and linked to in INSTALL.txt

I can't find any information on unicode-conversion.php -- can it be downloaded from somewhere?

php-smartypants.php is originally BSD-licensed, so as far as I know, there's nothing stopping us from releasing it as GPL in the conjunction with this module.

Unless anyone can argue different, I'm going to assume that it's perfectly okay and legal to include (revised) BSD-licensed code in our project and release the whole project under the GPL.
