Just be careful with this train of thought as not all RPMs will be under the
GPL
for example, take the apache web server..
[root at wibble httpd-2.2.3]# pwd
/usr/share/doc/httpd-2.2.3
[root at wibble httpd-2.2.3]# ls
ABOUT_APACHE CHANGES LICENSE NOTICE README VERSIONING migration.css
migration.html
[root at wibble httpd-2.2.3]# more LICENSE

While most RPMs will be GPL, not ALL RPMs will be GPL.
