Actually, I am starting to think that maintaining a long list of license shortnames in DEP-5, many of which refer to rarely used licenses, is perhaps too much effort. Since the list really should be shared with other projects (SPDX and Fedora especially), it would perhaps make most sense to refer to it instead of incorporating it in the spec. I would, however, keep a short list of shortnames for the versioned licenses in /usr/share/common-licenses (excluding BSD, plain GFDL, plain GPL, plain LGPL, plain Artistic): Apache-2.0, GFDL-1.2, GFDL-1.3, GPL-1, GPL-2, GPL-3, LGPL-2, LGPL-2.1, LGPL-3.
