I know. That file needs to be reworked to remove the redundancy with 
doc/develop/sending_patches.rst (which has some inaccuracies concerning 
SPDX) and moved to HTML. We should handle it in a separate patch.

We will need separate patches for LGPL-2.0+ and LGPL-2.1+, too.

But this should not stop us from merging the current patch.

Best regards

Heinrich
