tl;dr - you converted 892 tags in 14 days, statistics script now does not mention recently introduced packages and you
can put your package on ignore list
Two weeks ago we had:
* 23060 spec files in Fedora
* 29449license tags in all spec files
* 21194 tags have not been converted to SPDX yet
* 8439 tags can be trivially converted using `license-fedora2spdx`
Today we have:
* 23107 spec files in Fedora
* 29503license tags in all spec files
* 20302 tags have not been converted to SPDX yet
* 8096 tags can be trivially converted using `license-fedora2spdx`
The list of packages needed to be converted is again here:

List by package maintainers is here

New version of fedora-license-data will be released tomorrow
Legal docs and especially
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/legal/allowed-licenses/
will be updated too.
I updated the progress in this spreadsheet:

You converted 892 license tags in 14 days. Amazing!
New projection when we will be finished is 2024-04-24. Pure linear
approximation.
Now, the script ignores packages that started after 2022-08-01, because by that time SPDX for License tags has been
already mandatory.
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 email to me is fine. I already put there some packages
that has been reported in past.
Tip:
SPDX formula allows to list licenses that are not on SPDX list, is uses LicenseRef-* notation. In Fedora we use it on
few places. You can read about it here

Why Independence of Lithuania? Because today - 11th March 1990 Lithuania declared an independece. It was first republic
from Soviet Union. It was not easy and several people had to pay by their life.
