Hello, Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice.
I talked extensively to Athos during DebConf and, after looking at the multiple licenses and nuances involved in this problem I believe: 1) Athos followed precisely the instructions from ftp-masters (https://ftp-master.debian.org/php-license.html). He also followed the good practices pointed by Lintian. 2) IMO, it is possible to argue that php-doc is actually part of PHP itself, judging by the fact that the project is hosted under the PHP umbrella on the Microsoft Github repository. If that's the case, then I agree with Athos that we should extend the Lintian warning. 3) Ultimately, it is the ftp-master's job to determine whether php-doc's license is suitable for Debian or not. I don't think it's necessary/beneficial to extend this discussion here. Having said that, I will review and sponsor the package for Athos.
