Hello all,
Since Savannah requires licenses to be under version control (see
here¹), I don't think it makes sense for Gnulib to provide modules for
them. My reasoning is that if developers are going to use a Gnulib
module, they won't keep the files it provides under version control (in
fact, gnulib-tool itself adds these files to .gitignore). There's no
reason to remove the license *files*, since it could be useful for
developers to copy them directly.
Please see the attached patch, which removes the license modules (but
keeps the license files themselves).
Thanks,
Asher
