Hi,
    Following up on one of my actions,  here's the proposal for the file types 
recongized, I'd like to insert into the spec.
    
    In particular, there was some discussion about IMAGE, so just wanted to 
confirm the following is ok.


6.2.1   Purpose:This field provides information about the type of file 
identified.  This information can be determinative of license compliance 
requirements. The options to populate this field are limited to:
(a)  SOURCE if the file is human readable source code (.c, .html, etc.);
(b)  BINARY if the file is a compiled object or binary executable (.o, .a, 
etc.);
(c)  ARCHIVE if the file represents an archive (.tar, .jar, etc.);
(d)  CRUFT if the file is a generated artifact of the build or repository it 
was stored in (.svn, .git, etc)
(e)  IMAGE if the file contains an image or copyrightable picture (.jpeg, etc) 
or
(f)  OTHER if the file doesn't fit into the above categories (pictures, audio, 
data files, etc.)


Thanks, Kate
