Hi

Updating mingw-sip I've re-verified the license to convert it to SPDX, and came across the SIP license which does not exist as a SPDX identifier. [1] states

"""

SIP is available under the following licenses.

SIP License. This is very similar to the Python Software Foundation license used for Python itself.
GNU General Public License v2
GNU General Public License v3

"""

I take this should be

License: SIP OR GPL-v2.0-only OR GPL-v3.0-only

(provided SIP existed as a SPDX identifier)?

The full SIP License text is attached.

See:

https://gitlab.com/fedora/legal/fedora-license-data/-/issues/377

https://gitlab.com/fedora/legal/fedora-license-data/-/merge_requests/421
The License: tag in this case should be `GPL-2.0-only OR GPL-3.0-only`
because we normally don't include not-allowed licenses in
OR-expressions having allowed operands (the big exception being Perl
packages which are allowed to use `GPL-1.0-or-later OR
Artistic-1.0-Perl` and `GPL-2.0-or-later OR Artistic-1.0-Perl).

I'm working on a big revision to the documentation on license tags and
am using the sip package as an example.

Thanks for your replies

Sandro
