field.

So yeah, a PR to change everything to strings would be welcome.

Then I fail to see the point of lib.licenses, as it's easier e.g. to write "GPLv2" than lib.licenses.gpl2.

On the other hand, it seemed nice to me that this way we could attach additional information, e.g. URL of the full license.
