fix(licence): apply owner ruling — MPL-2.0 for code, CC-BY-SA-4.0 for docs - #78
Merged
Conversation
… docs SPDX headers were already correct; the licence *bodies* and prose declarations were the defect: component LICENSE files carried the PALIMPSEST-MPL "PMPL-1.0" text under an MPL-2.0 SPDX header. - Replace all 7 component LICENSE files with the canonical MPL-2.0 text (LICENSES/MPL-2.0.txt); add the missing vexometer-efficacy/LICENSE - Delete license/PMPL-1.0.txt (x3) and vext/PALIMPSEST.adoc - Rewrite NOTICE to the ruled identity; fix guix.scm to the standard (@ (guix licenses) mpl2.0) form (old 2-arg constructor was arity-broken) - Fix licence badges/sections in 6 READMEs, QUICKSTART-MAINTAINER, vext RSR_COMPLIANCE + TECHNOLOGY_STACK, the COMMIT-AND-PUSH.sh heredoc, and the setup-repo.k9.ncl example (curled a PMPL LICENSE for new repos) - Regenerate all 8 trust manifests (READMEs are tracked inputs) Historical records (vext CHANGELOG, conference-materials) left untouched.

📝 SummarySummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughThe change replaces Palimpsest-MPL references with standard MPL-2.0 licensing. Documentation is licensed under CC-BY-SA-4.0. Component licence files, package metadata, README files, compliance records, and trust manifests were updated. ChangesLicensing standardisation
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The licensing migration is not yet merge-ready because generated repositories may receive incomplete or falsely successful LICENSE files, while repository notices, compliance records, and README declarations can still misstate the applicable licenses. These issues could propagate incorrect licensing metadata and require correction before merging. Poem

In @.machine_readable/self-validating/examples/setup-repo.k9.ncl:
- Line 135: Update the license download command in the setup recipe to use
curl’s --fail, --show-error, and --location options, write the response to a
temporary file, and replace LICENSE only after a successful download.
In `@NOTICE`:
- Around line 15-16: Update the licensing statement in NOTICE to accurately
describe SPDX headers as appearing in a format-permitted position rather than
universally on line 1, unless the K9 format supports moving the declaration and
the example file can be made conformant.
In `@satellite-template/README.adoc`:
- Around line 5-7: Complete the README licence migration: update
satellite-template/README.adoc lines 5-7 to state the MPL-2.0 code and
CC-BY-SA-4.0 documentation split and reference LICENSE instead of LICENSE.txt;
update lazy-eliminator/README.adoc line 6 and vexometer-satellites/README.adoc
line 11 to state the same code/documentation licence split.
In `@vexometer/.trust/trust-manifest.sha256`:
- Line 1: Add the required SPDX-License-Identifier header for MPL-2.0 to the
trust-manifest file in a position supported by the trust-manifest format, while
preserving the existing manifest content.
In `@vext/COMMIT-AND-PUSH.sh`:
- Line 30: Update the LICENSE heredoc in the repository-generation script so it
writes the complete canonical Mozilla Public License 2.0 text, using a
checked-in canonical source or a failure-checked, verified fetch; retain the
generated LICENSE creation flow and ensure incomplete placeholder content is no
longer emitted.
In `@vext/RSR_COMPLIANCE.adoc`:
- Around line 127-129: Update Appendix B in RSR_COMPLIANCE.adoc so its SPDX
evidence lists MPL-2.0 for source code files and CC-BY-SA-4.0 for documentation
files, replacing the statement that all source files use CC-BY-SA-4.0; keep the
evidence aligned with the dual-licensing section.

This file has no SPDX-License-Identifier header. Add the MPL-2.0 header in a position accepted by the trust-manifest format, then run just trust-verify.

Generate the complete canonical MPL-2.0 text.
The heredoc creates LICENSE, but it contains only a title, a short notice, a URL, and an SPDX identifier. It does not contain the canonical MPL-2.0 text required by this rollout.
A repository generated by this script can therefore receive an incomplete LICENSE. Generate the full canonical text from a checked-in source, or fetch it with failure checking and verification.
This follows the PR objective that generated repositories receive canonical MPL-2.0 text.

Follow-up to #78 (owner ruling: **MPL-2.0 for code, CC-BY-SA-4.0 for docs**). Clears the four residue items fenced in the #78 report, all owner-approved: - **Delete `vext/COMMIT-AND-PUSH.sh`** — legacy one-shot bootstrap script with broken `/var$REPOS_DIR` / `/var$HOME` paths, superseded by the monorepo. `grep -rn 'COMMIT-AND-PUSH'` proves no inbound references. - **Fix `vext/vext-core/Cargo.toml` cargo-deb pointer** — `license-file` pointed at `../LICENSE.txt`, which never existed; now `../LICENSE` (canonical MPL-2.0 since #78). `[package] license = "MPL-2.0"` was already correct and is untouched. - **Drop the dead `PMPL` alternative** from the licence-content accept patterns in `contractile.just:65` and `.machine_readable/contractiles/Trustfile.a2ml:57`. Behaviour-neutral (`MPL` substring-matched `PMPL` anyway); the patterns now name only licences that can actually appear. Verification: `just trust-verify` and `just trust-manifest-verify` both pass locally; all 8 component manifests verify unchanged, so no regen is required (neither gate file is manifest-tracked). No `uses:` refs touched, so actions.lock is untouched per the standing contract. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

What
Applies the owner ruling (2026-09-02): MPL-2.0 for code, CC-BY-SA-4.0 for docs — answering the licence-identity question flagged in #76 (comment: MPL-2.0 SPDX headers over PALIMPSEST-MPL bodies, template-wide).
Ruling applied as: SPDX headers were already correct; the PMPL licence bodies and prose declarations were the defect. LICENSE bodies become plain MPL-2.0, PMPL texts and declarations are removed, documentation stays CC-BY-SA-4.0.
