If we can, it certainly has substantial merits, but I'm not sure that this satisfies the requirement in a lot of licenses to distribute a copy of the license along with the work. Some licenses may allow that to be provided as a URL, but I don't think they all do (which makes sense since people may receive Debian on physical media and not have Internet access). -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <https://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
