Speaking of tools, should we include SPDX tags alongside the full text of all our licenses, as that is yet another thing that aids license-checking tools? https://spdx.github.io/spdx-spec/appendix-V-using-SPDX-short-identifiers-in-source-files/ However, for clarity, I think it is wrong to rely on SPDX tag only in place of the full license text; adding the one-liner SPDX should be just that, an additional line. -- Eric Blake, Principal Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc. +1-919-301-3266 Virtualization: qemu.org | libvirt.org
