Is it supposed to replace admin/unidata/copyright.html or to be applied in addition to it? In the latter case, the problem isn't solved, because we still have: >> > | Unicode, Inc. shall have the right to modify this Agreement >> > | at any time by posting it to this website. Also, I don't see a reference to license.txt in any header of the individual files in admin/unidata/. They either link to https://www.unicode.org/terms_of_use.html (which redirects to copyright.html) or they don't have any license notice at all.
