I think it's a bad idea to link to Wikipedia because anyone can edit it, but I see that expat has been used instead. Good, thanks. [...] > There are also many non-free licenses mentioned without a link. Why? It was enough of a pain in the bum to find accurate links for those licences from the main distribution. I didn't spend the extra time supporting non-free because it shouldn't be encouraged. Some of them had multiple licences under the exact same name too, so which do we link? The latest? The most restrictive? One that corresponds to some package on the non-free mirrors at the moment? GNU LibGPL wasn't linked because it was moving around GNU's site at the time IIRC and I didn't know a good URL for the vhfpl. The "Work in Progress" section is very out of date. Replace the second and third paragraphs with a simple link to debian-legal's archive, perhaps?
