New version of fedora-license-data has been released. With:
    14 new licenses (plus some public domain declarations).
    20 licenses are waiting to be review by SPDX.org (and then to be added to fedora-license-data) https://gitlab.com/fedora/legal/fedora-license-data/-/issues/?label_name%5B%5D=SPDX%3A%3Ablocked

Legal docs and especially

  https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/legal/allowed-licenses/

was updated too.

New projection when we will be finished is 2025-01-17 (+12 days from last report).  Pure linear approximation.

If your package does not have neither git-log entry nor spec-changelog entry mentioning SPDX and you know your license tag matches SPDX formula, you can put your package on ignore list

Why Please Please Me edition? On this day, in 1963 Beatles got the first place in UK music chart for the first time. It was their first album. They decided to record it after a success of their single. So they recorded 10 additional songs (in one day) and album Please Please Me was born. It stayed in the chart for almost a year until Beatles recorded next album. This was surprising as before this album the charts were occupied by movie songs and easy listening song for adults and not for teenagers. Follow the rabbit hole:
