Thanks, I have just updated the Source line in debian/copyright to
point to this commit.

Please do so, I'll wait with the upload until you have this ready.

Yeah, I found it buried under more TODOs…

Human-readable format, standard Debian, but with Debian specifics
on top, then “Licence:”, an empty line, and everything applying to
the soundfont. The stuff below “Licence:\n” is copied into the
soundfont file.

Sometimes they [people] care too much: pretty printers [and syntax highligh-
ting, d.A.] mechanically produce pretty output that accentuates irrelevant
detail in the program, which is as sensible as putting all the prepositions
in English text in bold font.   -- Rob Pike in "Notes on Programming in C"

Alright, I will adjust the Source line in debian/copyright to point to 
this specific commit and add David Bolton to the copyright holders.



We should probably document this quote in debian/copyright.


Yes.


Already done so last year:

Just realized this conversation is nearly one year old now...


And if you then format debian/copyright the way I did in
fluid/musescore, non-DEP, with a Licence:\n\n before the
part that ends up in the SF2 file, it’ll be easy to do t̲h̲a̲t̲.


Well, I fail to see in which mysterious way you formatted musescore's 
debian/copyright file, but if there is anything you'd like to add to the 
timgm6mb-soundfont package, please feel free to file a merge request or

it's team-maintained and I have already fixed some stuff without anyone

Yes, exactly. (With the eventual idea of copying this kind of
metadata somehow into the generated waveform; some licences
virtually require this (e.g. Fluid/musescore-general-soundfont’s
MIT) and others who contributed under CC0 still would appreciate
it if their contribution shows up on for example searches over
MP3 tags.

I am not exactly sure I understand what you mean here? You want to
embed licensing information in the soundfont file itself?

Okay, we should probably replace the Homepage field with this link.
Also, I don't see any way to address the author there except for a
dubious guestbook. Wow, this is really very late-90s over there... ;)

Regarding the file size, I guess the file we have in the Debian package
comes from the musescore sources, right? Did they have somewhere
documented where they got their copy from?
