Alternatively, we could add a new header line with license
information to the items themselves, but that would be more
complicated with (IMHO) little gain.
For better consistency, we could also add a 'License' tag to the news
items.
Yeah, but see what I had said above.
However, if the consensus is that we should have such a line, see
attached patch for GLEP 42.
Coming back to this old thread. There were no more replies, but I don't
feel like merging this patch after such a long time, unless there would
be more support for it.
So, any further opinions?
Note that the README file (mentioned previously in this thread) is in
place:
