> Would Debian use such markup in any way? Eventually. Debian has something called machine readable copyright format to document per file copyright/license information. It emerged in parallel with SPDX. However afaik we do not have packaged tooling to automatically generate DEP-5 copyright files from SPDX license identifiers. Reuse might do the trick. (Currently the Debian packaging does not provide a machine readable copyright file.) cu Andreas -- `What a good friend you are to him, Dr. Maturin.
