From 5faff78a9a8ea98c116dc7797b75c73baa85ac5d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Beth Flanagan Date: Wed, 25 May 2011 13:47:52 -0700 Subject: common-licenses: Adding new licenses and renaming I'm adding full common licenses to the common license directory. These licenses are taken from the SPDX project or the OSI license repository. They conform to the SPDX naming convention and will be used by the new license.bbclass license parser in order to maintain some sort of internal standard for license naming. Going forward, we should have a bigger conversation about the LICENSE field and standardizing that to conform to this naming standard.
