This patch changes GPL boilerplate.
Signed-off-by: Demi Marie Obenour <d...@invisiblethingslab.com>
For the licensing boilerplate, I think it would be better to switch to
SPDX instead.
That said, given that you have already done the work to covert the GPL
boilerplate everywhere, I think this is OK. But if you have time and
energy I would love to see a patch switching to SPDX in as many places
as possible.
The only part of this patch I actually wrote is the commit message. The
rest was generatedy by:
git ls-files -z |
xargs -0 -- sed -Ei -- 's@(http)(://www\.gnu\.org)@\1s\2@g'
followed by the usual git stuff. Do you know of a similar automated
tool for SPDX conversion?
I did this with a little script in the past:

It could be adapted for the different licenses.
Thanks! Yesterday evening, I was looking at scancode which is able to
detect licenses but I didn't manage to figure out if it was possible to
replace license text with SPDX.
In v1, IIRC, Demi said she didn't have time to look at it. But I am
happy to give a try as it shouldn't be too complicated to replace the
majority.
Cheers,
