Isn't it just a matter of time before that gets fixed? I imagine they can scrub the majority of those cases in a few weeks if not faster. I mean I see your point, and I appreciate you taking the time to answer. But it's a fixable problem, right?


Yes, clearly once it was pointed out it was going to just be a matter of time :) But I just think that even with the best of intentions, it'll take a long long time for every such reference to be found, reported and fixed.


Hah actually you made me curious now :-)

Knowing the FOSS community a bit, I'd personally imagine every GitHub repo flooding with subtly pedantic but well-meaning issues and pull requests titled "fix licensing".

Thanks again for your thoughts by the way.
