Perhaps it's fine if the copyright owners distribute the binaries
themselves, I don't know.

Aside the legal problem, I believe it's a great idea: we could provide
an apt repository with the latest version of FreeRADIUS for Debian
stable, testing and unstable. Indeed I think more people are
installing Debian stable (Sarge) on a production server, but they
get an old version of FreeRADIUS. (unless they compile it manually)
Such a repository would help the Debian users to easily upgrade
FreeRADIUS on their servers with the apt-get utility.
