Finally declare gnome-common to be GPL 2+, by doing some source code
archaeology.
These files we can effectively ignore:
.gitignore
AUTHORS
ChangeLog.pre-git
NEWS
README
doc-build/README
doc/usage.txt
gnome-common.doap
macros2/README.cvs-commits
The build files you could argue are boilerplate/uncopyrightable:
Makefile.am
autogen.sh
configure.in
doc-build/Makefile.am
macros2/Makefile.am
So that leaves:
doc-build/gnome-doc-common.in
doc-build/omf.make
doc-build/xmldocs.make
Appeared in e16ea58db92e05b9720acdc6992175ec346dfc91. Appears to have
been copy-pasted from scrollkeeper-example2, LGPLv2.1.
macros2/gnome-autogen.sh
Can be traced back to gnome-libs 88f7376472d3ee54329213c118b46225703d8223, which
is GPLv2/LGPLv2.
macros2/gnome-code-coverage.m4
LGPLv2.1+.
macros2/gnome-common.m4
macros2/gnome-compiler-flags.m4
Synced with gnome-core as of 425e5cc9aad003c9f64d43f2d3f15e04a97db854, so
LGPLv2.1+.
The long-standing assumption is that gnome-common was GPLv2+, so use that
license. Finally the tyranny of unclear licensing is over!
