My understanding is that anyone who contributes a non-trivial patch to an ELPA package must assign copyright to the FSF, so I'd guess an ELPA package is GPLv3+ by definition. --=20 Kyle From debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org Sun Mar 18 04:27:54 2018 Received: (at 30836) by debbugs.gnu.org; 18 Mar 2018 08:27:54 +0000 Received: from localhost ([127.0.0.1]:38958 helo=debbugs.gnu.org) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.84_2) (envelope-from ) id 1exTfW-0004a2-Cw for submit@debbugs.gnu.org; Sun, 18 Mar 2018 04:27:54 -0400 Received: from out5-smtp.messagingengine.com ([66.111.4.29]:48403) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.84_2) (envelope-from ) id 1exTfT-0004Zt-Ar for 30836@debbugs.gnu.org; Sun, 18 Mar 2018 04:27:51 -0400 Received: from compute7.internal (compute7.nyi.internal [10.202.2.47]) by mailout.nyi.internal (Postfix) with ESMTP id BDEB220D34; Sun, 18 Mar 2018 04:27:50 -0400 (EDT) Received: from frontend1 ([10.202.2.160]) by compute7.internal (MEProxy); Sun, 18 Mar 2018 04:27:50 -0400 DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=fastmail.net; h= cc:content-transfer-encoding:content-type:date:from:in-reply-to :message-id:mime-version:references:subject:to:x-me-sender :x-me-sender:x-sasl-enc; s=fm3; bh=q5+W4GNlP2cidsUtuOD6wq1TyQTAs WXK0rkN8KYTBMU=; b=WZTR08Pg95CIOWstAfsIHkPOAtUu/NtCYmjaTYqj+Eeg5 A3lZjW0uqXx4rmfCG7cO1ZuKZOordmK700RVJKTHi9KH7rVn8XP5KaSMjoB8C6nH bNJDSjidW0TfSA9+zdu7UNTnZyIhfncZFfx86lN4+z8bseMiwr6NUnNwQGwqyw/T DEDZqoy/d77ptG2VMwiHP1qtJS3qVIJn/ojwqsFxinN84uyr+7h54GkuXSDEjRar K13NpddVkIn8NwgQSAjLz2RheHX5V6td8Y5W8aJxvPRuUyqil3l6ZvEAU7vPGQM/ D30/2gzVsHzAv0brIWuYV2yTLqMS8mkCHOO6aOOnQ== DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d= messagingengine.com; h=cc:content-transfer-encoding:content-type :date:from:in-reply-to:message-id:mime-version:references :subject:to:x-me-sender:x-me-sender:x-sasl-enc; s=fm2; bh=q5+W4G NlP2cidsUtuOD6wq1TyQTAsWXK0rkN8KYTBMU=; b=h38OwhHZuh1mOa8qzkSUac aZXSjYDenGsqbYhbzeKteYJ7ML7cx8kFNbv1AstUXDnIC/Sop+uo0u8cDB/XClen McTNKjVUUcXk0ZErTdi7Wj5YpTvNFIYo5sjfU+KWulBu1JHXYrvbzWlQzBZDNsLx YCjOOxUXMp3OqXG6NEYJJL2YVgjMclaxjpYjpxf+URsOEjzCUQJDumzlmVk6ZjG5 kf7HBBeWK9T0fXnEdRd9WAJOLtwL9J6NL++PKxzzLlxdNHTG4kAJSKUZEU7X0V7d FB1kgyNR/Dgf3lVN6B5+tobkM+Jv7/SI9cveX6ViFVppIGXJ5QebiUSTF2h87NUw == X-ME-Sender: Received: from ordinateur-de-catherine--konrad.home (lfbn-1-12058-38.w90-92.abo.wanadoo.fr [90.92.120.38]) by mail.messagingengine.com (Postfix) with ESMTPA id 1A7B37E1FF; Sun, 18 Mar 2018 04:27:50 -0400 (EDT) From: Konrad Hinsen To: Ludovic =?utf-8?Q?Court=C3=A8s?= Subject: Re: [bug#30836] [PATCH 2/3] guix import elpa: use #f for license In-Reply-To: <87y3iql7b7.fsf@gnu.org> References: <87y3iql7b7.fsf@gnu.org> Date: Sun, 18 Mar 2018 09:27:56 +0100 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable X-Spam-Score: -0.7 (/) X-Debbugs-Envelope-To: 30836 Cc: 30836@debbugs.gnu.org X-BeenThere: debbugs-submit@debbugs.gnu.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.18 Precedence: list List-Id: List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Errors-To: debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org Sender: "Debbugs-submit" X-Spam-Score: -0.7 (/) ludo@gnu.org (Ludovic Court=C3=A8s) writes: > Konrad Hinsen skribis: > >> Elpa doesn't supply license information.

The ELPA importer is also used for MELPA, which has no license requirements. The package that motivated this patch is Deft, which is MIT-licensed: https://jblevins.org/projects/deft/ If GNU ELPA guarantees GPL3, we could keep the old behavior for that but use #f for MELPA and stable MELPA.
