Given that "good" and "bad" are historical for the Fedora licensing

I like the idea of moving to 'approved' vs 'not approved' in general. I
think most people looking at that list will be looking in the context of
packaging for Fedora and will just want to know if it's approved or not.
That said, I think Neil makes a good point about people choosing
licenses. Would it make sense to have 'approved' and 'not approved' and
'reccomended' ? :) Of course then recommended would be subjective, but
perhaps thats ok. This would just be a smaller subset of licenses that
are not only approved, but encouraged by the project.
That's an interesting idea - are you thinking this would be in the
context of: "If you are creating or considering a license for a package
that you want included in Fedora, here is a list of recommended licenses
to use" ? (which I suppose implicitly says, use an approved/good one,
but don't just pick any old approved/good one, please)
