Hello,

I disagree that this is as clear cut as you make it sound, policy does
not require DEP-5 or similar per file level listings. The aggregated
work is licensed GPL-3+, there is no legal or policy need to list the
license of the individual files in the binary package. And we are
listing the copyright holder (FSF).
