Subject: [U-Boot] [PATCH 0/5] Introducing SPDX-License-Identifiers
Date: Thu, 11 Jul 2013 22:35:01 +0200	[thread overview]

Dear Wolfgang Denk,

> 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

> indentation, line wrapping and/or white space, with obsolete address
> information, ...) which makes automatic processing a nightmare.

> To make this easier, such license headers in the source files will be

> 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
