I think the biggest mistake from beginning is that we have not clearly marked the licenses as SPDX / Callaway. I think it still would be better to mark the remaining licenses as Callaway then doing this auto conversions. After all, I think that having license fields such as `spdx(GPL-2.0-only) and callaway(MIT)` would not be that bad. Of course we could even have `GPL-2.0-only and callaway(MIT)` if we say SPDX is default and then there are old licenses which still needs some review.

I really do not want to have this as this would create yet another standard.

What I can do is to put a comment above the license:


# Automatically converted from old format: GPLv2

License: GPL-2.0-only
