Subject: Specifying licenses that are not included with guix
Date: Sat, 13 May 2023 11:36:39 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <216678161.328421.1683970599623@office.mailbox.org> (raw)

Hello,

I'm currently packaging vim plugins. This is mostly going well, but I've hit some license-related issues.

1. What do I do if a package specifies a license that is not included in guix/licenses.scm ? For example, vim-sandwich uses the NYSL license [1] (between public-domain and WTFPL), coc.nvim is the originator of the "Anti 996" License [2] (modified version of MIT / expat).

2. What do I do if a package specifies no license at all? For example see https://github.com/coderifous/textobj-word-column.vim/issues/11
