  2. Names of licenses we currently support

Re: Names of licenses we currently support

Thanks Daniel. As the reference page for each license and its header emerge - cross checking against this is going to be useful.

Hmm, am a little concerned about putting some of them into the standard set of reference licenses. ... in particular some I think should be flagged as exceptions so they get looked at. ie. BeerWareV42 ;)
SameTermsAs and SeeFile are likely not licences but references to licenses.

Can I assume that the mapping of names to the actual license search strings can be found in Ninka sources?

In particular the BSD and MIT varients look worrisome. Any volunteers to review the details there and make some recommendations?

Kate

these the licenses we currently identify. Look particularly
at the BSDs
and MIts. Some are not licenses but their exception
statements. I have
the feeling that these cover around 75-86% of files in
Debian/Fedora
(the source code files that have a license)
