Update description of DMTF schema distribution terms

[libvirt] [cim PATCH] Update description of DMTF schema distribution terms

Posted by Daniel P. Berrangé 5 years, 2 months ago

The schema files that we actually download & bundle in the tar.gz dist
have removed the clause "for uses consistent with this purpose" which
is good because that clause might be considered a distribution
restriction which could make it a non-free license.
