+
+ <p>This is a proposal to make <tt class=
+ "filename">debian/copyright</tt> machine-interpretable. This
+ file is one of the most important files in Debian packaging,
+ yet there is currently no standard format defined for it and
+ its contents vary tremendously across packages, making it
+ difficult to automatically extract licensing information.</p>
+
+ <p>This is not a proposal to change the policy in the short
+ term. In particular, nothing in this proposal supersedes or
+ modifies any of the requirements specified in Debian Policy
+ regarding the appropriate detail or granularity to use when
+ documenting copyright and license status in <tt class=
+ "filename">debian/copyright</tt>.</p>
+ </div>
+
+ <div class="section">
+ <hr>
+
+ <h2 class="section"><a name="rationale" id=
+ "rationale">Rationale</a></h2>
+
+ <p>The diversity of free software licenses means that Debian
+ needs to care not only about the freeness of a given work,
+ but also its license's compatibility with the other parts of
+ Debian it uses.</p>
+
+ <p>The arrival of the GPL version 3, its incompatibility with
+ version 2, and our inability to spot the software where the
+ incompatibility might be problematic is one prominent
+ occurrence of this limitation.</p>
+
+ <p>There are earlier precedents, also. One is the GPL/OpenSSL
+ incompatibility. Apart from grepping <tt class=
+ "filename">debian/copyright</tt>, which is prone to numerous
+ false positives (packaging under the GPL but software under
+ another license) or negatives (GPL software but with an
+ <span class="QUOTE">"OpenSSL special exception"</span> dual
+ licensing form), there is no reliable way to know which
+ software in Debian might be problematic.</p>
+
+ <p>And there is more to come. There are issues with shipping
+ GPLv2-only software with a CDDL operating system such as
+ Nexenta. The GPL version 3 solves this issue, but not all GPL
+ software can switch to it and we have no way to know how much
+ of Debian should be stripped from such a system.</p>
+
+ <p>A user might want to have a way to avoid software with
+ certain licenses they have a problem with, even if the
+ licenses are DFSG-free. For example, the Affero GPL.</p>

+
+ <h2 class="section"><a name="acknowledgements" id=
+ "acknowledgements">Acknowledgements</a></h2>
+
+ <p>Many people have worked on this specification over the
+ years. The following alphabetical list is incomplete, please
+ suggest missing people: Russ Allbery, Ben Finney, Sam
+ Hocevar, Steve Langasek, Charles Plessy, Noah Slater, Jonas
+ Smedegaard, Lars Wirzenius.</p>

+
+ <h2 class="section"><a name="file-syntax" id=
+ "file-syntax">File syntax</a></h2>
+
+ <p>The <tt class="filename">debian/copyright</tt> file must
+ be machine-interpretable, yet human-readable, while
+ communicating all mandated upstream information, copyright
+ notices and licensing details.</p>
+
+ <p>The syntax of the file is the same as for other Debian
+ control files, as specified in the Debian Policy Manual. See
+ its <a href=
+ "http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields#s-controlsyntax"
+ target="_top">section 5.1</a> for details. Extra fields can
+ be added to any paragraph. No prefixing is necessary or
+ desired, but please avoid names similar to standard ones so
+ that mistakes are easier to catch. Future versions of the
+ <tt class="filename">debian/copyright</tt> specification will
+ attempt to avoid conflicting specifications for widely used
+ extra fields.</p>
+
+ <p>There are four kinds values for fields. Each field
+ specifies which kind is allowed.</p>
+
+ <div class="section">
+ <hr>
+
+ <h3 class="section"><a name="single-line" id=
+ "single-line">Single-line values</a></h3>
+
+ <p>A single-line value means that the whole value of a
+ field must fit on a single line. For example, the
+ <code class="varname">Format</code> field has a single line
+ value specifying the version of the machine-readable format
+ that is used.</p>
+ </div>
+
+ <div class="section">
+ <hr>
+
+ <h3 class="section"><a name="white-space-lists" id=
+ "white-space-lists">White space separated lists</a></h3>
+
+ <p>A white space separated list means that the field value
+ may be on one line or many, but values in the list are
+ separated by one or more white space characters (including
+ space, TAB, and newline). For example, the <code class=
+ "varname">Files</code> field has a list of filename
+ patterns.</p>
+ </div>
+
+ <div class="section">
+ <hr>
+
+ <h3 class="section"><a name="line-based-lists" id=
+ "line-based-lists">Line based lists</a></h3>
+
+ <p>Another kind of list value has one value per line. For
+ example, <code class="varname">Copyright</code> can list
+ many copyright statements, one per line.</p>
+ </div>
+
+ <div class="section">
+ <hr>
+
+ <h3 class="section"><a name="formatted-text" id=
+ "formatted-text">Text formatted like package long
+ descriptions</a></h3>
+
+ <p>Formatted text fields use the same rules as the long
+ description in a package's <code class=
+ "varname">Description</code> field, possibly also using the
+ first line as a synopsis, like <code class=
+ "varname">Description</code> uses it for the short
+ description. See Debian Policy's section 5.6.13, <a href=
+ "http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields#s-f-Description"
+ target="_top"><span class="QUOTE">"Description"</span></a>,

+
+ <p>Much of the value of a machine-parseable copyright file
+ lies in being able to correlate the licenses of multiple
+ pieces of software. To that end, this spec defines standard
+ short names for a number of commonly used licenses, which
+ can be used in the first line of a <code class=
+ "varname">License</code> field.</p>
+
+ <p>These short names have the specified meanings across all
+ uses of this file format, and <span class=
+ "emphasis"><i class="emphasis">must not</i></span> be used
+ to refer to any other licenses. Parsers may thus rely on
+ these short names referring to the same licenses wherever
+ they occur, without needing to parse or compare the full
+ license text.</p>
+
+ <p>From time to time, licenses may be added to or removed
+ from the list of standard short names. Such changes in the
+ list of short names will always be accompanied by changes
+ to the recommended <code class="varname">Format</code>
+ value. Implementers who are parsing copyright files should
+ take care not to assume anything about the meaning of
+ license short names for unknown <code class=
+ "varname">Format</code> versions.</p>
+
+ <p>Use of a standard short name does not override the
+ Debian Policy requirement to include the full license text
+ in <tt class="filename">debian/copyright</tt>, nor any
+ requirements in the license of the work regarding
+ reproduction of legal notices. This information must still
+ be included in the <code class="varname">License</code>
+ field, either in a stand-alone license paragraph or in the
+ relevant files paragraph.</p>
+
+ <p>For licenses which have multiple versions in use, the
+ version number is added, using a dash as a separator. If
+ omitted, the lowest version number is implied. When the
+ license grant permits using the terms of any later version
+ of that license, the short name is finished with a plus
+ sign. For <a href="#spdx">SPDX</a> compatibility, trailing
+ <span class="emphasis"><i class=
+ "emphasis">dot-zeroes</i></span> are considered to be equal
+ to plainer version (e.g., <span class=
+ "QUOTE">"2.0.0"</span> is considered equal to <span class=
+ "QUOTE">"2.0"</span> and <span class=
+ "QUOTE">"2"</span>).</p>
+
+ <p>Currently, the full text of the licenses is only
+ available in the <a href="http://spdx.org/licenses" target=
+ "_top">SPDX Open Source License Registry</a>.</p>
