After looking at http://spdx.org/licenses/, I realise that the very existence of a license list in DEP-5 is in question (not in this thread). However, since I had a version of the DEP with a more comprehensive use of web links for licenses, I propose the attached patch anyway.
I also propose the addition of the AGPL, Boost, GNU all permissive and NetBSD licenses, in a separate patch. Lastly, the different versions of some licenses could be listed explicitely, this is the subject of the third patch. -- Charles Plessy Tsurumi, Kanagawa, Japan
