Hey folks,
I've started looking through patchtest & patchtest-oe in detail and
spotted that all the scripts, support code and test cases are licensed
under GPLv2. Is that ok given that we plan to copy this into
openembedded-core (probably under meta/lib/oeqa)? Is there any
practical effect of this not being MIT licensed?
Thanks,
Paul

We have a mix of MIT and GPL licensing already. As long as the scripts
have a clear SPDX license identifier, I think we're fine. If not, we
should add that in the existing repo before the move.
Cheers,
Richard

Ok cool. Converting the license headers to SPDX is already on my list.
Thanks,
