That should be sufficient to confirm the licensing terms ...

... however, if that turns out to be the case, then it seems that Guix
cannot include clojure-com-cognitect-aws-s3 as-is, because of 3.2(b) of
the EPL2.0:

  3.2 When the Program is Distributed as Source Code:

      a)[...]
      b) a copy of this Agreement must be included with each copy of the Program.

Perhaps an appropriate snippet would be sufficient, or maybe not.

Rhethorical question: why do people keep forgetting this of kind term (in the
GPL, EPL, Expat or otherwise, even in their own software?)

Do you know where the cognitect slack channels are located?  I've created an
account (for the clojure slack) some time ago, but I don't know where the
cognitect slack is (didn't find it).  Also, do you know if they are also
reachable via some open platform (e-mail, IRC, ...)?

Greetings,
Maxime.
