Sorry, sort of lost control of my keyboard there. I was trying to say: The
second point may be more significant. We have unambiguously rejected the
concept of the effective license, except possibly in some extreme
scenarios. For this reason alone, it is possible that most Fedora package
license tags are inaccurate even if you assume that the relevant
identifiers are truly synonymous, which they aren't.

I am not sure how we will act upon the hope for further auditing, but maybe
better documentation could help result in more accurate (or
guidelines-conformant) license tags over a long period of time.
