Sorry forgot to notice you, nope the tinderbox completed the run, and

 The only approval that's required to merge anything to an official
 portage branch is Zac's (zmedico). He may have to follow some rules
 and wait for some vote from the council when for example EAPIs are
 concerned but whether to merge code or not is his decision and
 responsibility. That said I've never seen him refusing to merge
 anything that was worth it.
 
  if [multilib] will be discussed finally on this meeting.
 
 Technically we don't need to (I'll explain that in another email) but
 we may. I'm just starting to work on the agenda for the 18th and I
 don't have everything in place yet.
 
 Denis.
 

OK, thanks a lot for the information :-)

 DSL
 FDL-1.1 FDL-1.2 FDL-1.3
 FreeArt

 I already went ahead and committed two new sets - FREE-DOCUMENTS and
 MISC-FREE.

 The above ones could probably be all added to FREE-DOCUMENTS.

Done, but I kept the FSF-APPROVED-OTHER set separate so that following
upstream changes will be easier.

And thanks for adding the FREE set and its FREE-{SOFTWARE,DOCUMENTS}
subsets. Accepting @FREE is enough for all packages in stage3, except
for man-pages-posix.

Not sure what we should do about this one. The crucial sentence is:
,

`

Any opinions?

 Yeah, I think that's reasonable.

I've just learned that GLEP 23 explicitly requires GPL-COMPATIBLE to
be present.

The GLEP would also require a NON-MUST-HAVE-READ group:
NON-MUST-HAVE-READ licenses are those that don't require manual
acceptance for to be considered legally binding. Whatever that means.

Some licenses (eg some in @EULA) require explicit acceptance of the
license.

@NON-MUST-HAVE-READ was supposed to be all licenses that you agree to
merely by using any material under them.

It seems fine to me. I think it's somewhat analogous to how a modified
TeX file must have a new name: it's a minor annoyance, but it doesn't
particularly restrict the end result.
