I have created the following suggested sample text to save people some
time when asking upstream authors to include full license text in their
packages:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/LicenseInclusionUpstreamRequest
Any comments/changes welcome. I'm not trying to mandate that anyone
should use this, just suggest that having a prewritten polite bit of
boilerplate might save some time.
If people like it generally then perhaps spot would consider including a
link to it on the PackageReviewGuidelines under the relevant point about
requesting upstream to include license text?
