So Bradley Kuhn got back to me and said that he encourages the creation of a LICENSE file which goes goes alongside COPYING and details which files are covered under which license. Of course each source file should still mention the full licensing terms (with suitable references to COPYING COPYING.LIB, etc. as appropriate, I presume). Given this approach, we'd still have COPYING as is, but we'd also have LICENSE which I presume would contain something like this: Unless otherwise noted, all files in Guile are covered under the terms of the GPL as described in COPYING, but with the following additional exception: ... Files in Guile covered by other licenses: ./guile-readline/* -- covered under the GPL, see COPYING. etc. This approach seems OK to me. How does everyone else feel about it?
