PrismLauncher[0]: The software itself is licensed as GPL3 but it is used to download and launch a proprietary videogame called "Minecraft". Since it is itself GPL3 licensed but used for a proprietary videogame, would it be allowed for upstream or not? 2: PCSX2[1]: Software itself is licensed as GPL3 but is used to emulate a PlayStation 2 (game console), which is highly proprietary hardware. It is also wishlisted on libreplanet[2]. It requires the original proprietary BIOS (not distributed by the software) to run. Since it is a game console, it also requires proprietary video games (not distributed by the software). 3. impatient-mode[3]: This is an Emacs mode to write HTML and see it in realtime rendered in the web browser. It has no license file. In the file "impatient-mode.el" it says "This is free and unencumbered software released into the public domain.". Is this suitable for an upstream package? It looks to me not correctly licensed but I am also not an expert in this and therefore unsure. PrismLauncher works but does not show images from the instance. PCSX2 works but does not show icons. Imaptient-mode is done. Since it is better to push as much as possible upstream, would they met the requirements or not?
