I am not sure how that would look like but if informal domain-specific
licensing has more clearly defined boundaries and would not apply to
random things like email,  I am in favor of this.  However if we had a
informal set of policies and someone picks up a spec file from Fedora
and wants to reuse it outside Fedora,  how would they know what rights
they have?  My goal in pushing towards explicit licensing is in part to
make it more obvious what to do in such cases.   Is there a alternative?
