Hi! Sorry - I think I was not very clear. I had referred to the guidelines and
what I wanted to ask is actually in the quoted text - 

"However, in situations where upstream is unresponsive, unable, or unwilling to
provide proper full license text as part of the source code, and the indicated
license requires that the full license text be included .... "

Is this (unresponsive/unable, etc.) the case or would you prefer to wait a
couple of days for upstream to (potentially) add the license?

If you think it does not make a big difference, I am perfectly fine with
approving the package as my understanding is that the current status is still
in compliance.
