[G.O.] Automatically capturing the upstream text in its original format would
be a really good contribution. Not only for formatting the text, but also for
testing the curated license matching text. One thing to take into account is
the existing process the legal team uses to maintain the license list. Once
you think this is a feasible approach, I suggest we bring this up to the SPDX
legal group.
