<br>
According to Debian we will probably have to delete the British<br>
hyphenation patterns from TeX Live unless the licence changes. See:<br>
<a href="https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=912557" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=912557</a><br>
<br>
In general it is becoming increasingly problematic to use custom<br>
(free-text) licences for each individual file. (It's problematic<br>
enough to keep up distributions of millions of different files with<br>
well-established licences, let alone having each individual lawyer<br>
check whether the licence in file X is compatible with the licence in<br>
file Y for N^2 combinations of those and ever increasing N.)<br>
<br>
A while ago we started suggesting the pattern authors to agree with<br>
the MIT licence, but some other licences might be acceptable as well<br>
(note that LPPL in particular is not acceptable for a number of<br>
projects).<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Mojca<br>
