Hot news:
- During review of packages with PublicDomain or
Freely-Redistributable we discovered that the license is not in
compliance with Fedora Linux. So several packages has to be
removed from Fedora. E.g. libva-intel-hybrid-driver or several
scumvm games. For more details see this tracking bug
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2310597
- Several packages during rebase used incorrect license id. If you are unsure if your license is correct, use `license-validate` tool. I think it is maybe about time to use it as standard test for every PR at src.fedoraproject.org. If you have objection or you want to help with that, please contact me.
- I have 30 PRs open with update of license tags against various
packages. If you review and merge them you make my life easier.

New version of fedora-license-data has been released. With:
6 new licenses and lots of public domain dedications
12 licenses are waiting to be reviewed by SPDX.org (and then
to be added to fedora-license-data) https://gitlab.com/fedora/legal/fedora-license-data/-/issues/?label_name%5B%5D=SPDX%3A%3Ablocked
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/legal/allowed-licenses/
was updated too.
If your package does not have neither git-log entry nor spec-changelog entry mentioning SPDX and you know your license tag matches SPDX formula, you can put your package on ignore list

Either pull-request or direct email to me is fine.
