I just realised that the SPDX site is not yet ready as their license links point to empty pages: http://spdx.org/licenses/ I attached three patches. The first removes the FreeBSD license, the second adds missing links to upstream pages, and the last points all the links to SPDX instead. I think that we should wait before applying the third and use the second in the meantime. In addition I noticed a minor mismatch between the SPDX license list page and the SPDX license spreadsheet: in the first the Apache license is ‘ASL’, and in the second it is ‘Apache’. The third patch may therefore need some adjustment, depending on how SPDX resolves this. Have a nice day, -- Charles Plessy Tsurumi, Kanagawa, Japan
