Thanks for the clarification. Anyway to avoid posible reclamations from the people on charge of checking licenses, could you add the license to the source files that have a copyright or author notice but not license? I.E.: gluon/contrib/gae_memcache.py gluon/contrib/taskbar_widget.py For the rest is logical to supose that they are under the web2py license, but for these some doubts might arise. On the other hand, I contacted John Conde, mentioned at gluon/contrib/AuthorizeNet.py because the license of his previous work was unknown. He has licensed it as GPL at http://www.johnconde.net/blog/integrate-the-authorizenet-aim-api-with-python-3-2/ so maybe you'll like to fix it in your sources too.
