Cover letter [U-Boot] [PATCH 0/5] Introducing SPDX-License-Identifiers
Dear Wolfgang Denk,
Quoted 9 lines
Like many other projects, U-Boot has a tradition of including big blocks of License headers in all files. This not only blows up the source code with mostly redundant information, but also makes it very difficult to generate License Clearing Reports. An additional problem is that even the same lincenses are referred to by a number of slightly varying text blocks (full, abbreviated, different indentation, line wrapping and/or white space, with obsolete address information, ...) which makes automatic processing a nightmare.
Quoted 5 lines
To make this easier, such license headers in the source files will be replaced with a single line reference to Unique Lincense Identifiers as defined by the Linux Foundation's SPDX project [1]. For example, in a source file the full "GPL v2.0 or later" header text will be replaced by a single line:
I think we have a winner for this round of u-boot commit statistics ;-)
For the MXS part and PXA part, series:
Best regards,
Marek Vasut
