Hi all, I noticed that there are some packages that bundle data from Sublime Text, notably data for how to apply syntax highlighting for various programming languages. The license that applies to this data is in this file: https://github.com/sublimehq/Packages/blob/759d6eed9b4beed87e602a23303a121c3a6c2fb3/LICENSE (Yes, in one case that I'm looking at, the bundled data is a 5 years old snapshot. Apparently only the Sublime Text v3 format is supported by syntect.) The contents of this LICENSE file are very short, so I'll just include it verbatim for convenience: ``` If not otherwise specified (see below), files in this repository fall under the following license: Permission to copy, use, modify, sell and distribute this software is granted. This software is provided "as is" without express or implied warranty, and with no claim as to its suitability for any purpose. An exception is made for files in readable text which contain their own license information, or files where an accompanying file exists (in the same directory) with a “-license” suffix added to the base-name name of the original file, and an extension of txt, html, or similar. For example “tidy” is accompanied by “tidy-license.txt”. ``` I could not find any SPDX license that matches this text. It looks very permissive to me, so it should be acceptable for content, but I would need to know how to classify it - both for existing packages where this was missed during package review, as well for a new package for a library that I need to package in order to be able to update an existing package to the latest version.
