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%...
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

Either pull-request or direct email to me is fine.
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:
