A good point.  I scanned them and they seem to be all Free licenses, and
we worry about the details far more when licenses are problematic.

If any of the licenses don't meet the DFSG (or the FSF Free definitinon),
I would be interested in knowing that, as that seems a much bigger deal
than simply not wanting to spend the time doing license bookeeping about
licenses that are ok.

Thanks for letting me know how you're handling it.
