These are external imported sources. I don't think you should be
changing them within u-boot other than anything necessary to build.
That will make importing them from upstream more work and add noise to
any real modifications that may have been made.

You are right about the imported part, but then, this change is a
trivial one when re-importing a new version.  On the other hand, it
significantly simplifies tasks like generating License Clearing
Reports and such.  If we would keep the full license headers for all
code imported from Linux or other projects we would rather give up
before even starting.

No, I think we should go on here and push this trhugh consequently,
setting a precedent for other projects, hoping they will adapt this
approach (and/or come up with even a better solution).  From the
feedback I've seen so far chances are not so bad.

Best regards,

Thanks for pushing this forward.

I have but one comment:

> +BSD 2-Clause License				BSD-2-Clause	Y		bsd-2-clause.txt	https://spdx.org/licenses/BSD-2-Clause

I don;t really like picking up the original license text from a second
source (SPDX here) - I'd rather refer to some "original" version
published by the creator of the license.

Maybe we can find a better URI here?


Except for that:

I agree, original version only we already have the SPDX Identifier.

It's a difficult task with BSD licenses and I found no original source yet.
Official information from Berkeley University:
http://ipira.berkeley.edu/
ftp://ftp.cs.berkeley.edu/pub/4bsd/README.Impt.License.Change

Other sources or information:
http://www.linfo.org/bsdlicense.html
http://opensource.org/licenses/BSD-2-Clause
http://www.freebsd.org/copyright/license.html

should I rebase without an URL for BSD-2-Clause as long as we have the
license in text form anyway?

I agree - BSD and licenses has never been an easy task :-(

No.  Please leave the SPDX reference as long as it's the best we can
get.

For the record, this has been applied to u-boot/master for a while now,
thanks!
