Description Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2012-12-03 16:01:29 UTC
Created attachment 331312 [details]
Proposed text for licenses/vim.org

The following  packages in the app-vim category come without any license. Typically, these are relatively short scripts that are hosted at <http://www.vim.org/scripts/>. I couldn't find any policy about distribution or licensing of add-ons at that site.

   app-vim/bnf-syntax
   app-vim/brainfuck-syntax
   app-vim/dhcpd-syntax
   app-vim/ebnf-syntax
   app-vim/errsign
   app-vim/eruby-syntax
   app-vim/fluxbox-syntax
   app-vim/genindent
   app-vim/gtk-syntax
   app-vim/increment
   app-vim/matrix
   app-vim/nginx-syntax
   app-vim/ntp-syntax
   app-vim/omnicppcomplete
   =app-vim/pam-syntax-20030818
   app-vim/pgn-syntax
   app-vim/project
   app-vim/snipmate
   app-vim/vimbuddy
   app-vim/xquery-syntax

As we have discussed, I'll add a new license file for them that will
describe the situation. We will _not_ add this to any free license group.

Proposed text is attached; license team, please approve.
