Hi, I am working on fixing font packages for adding metainfo files as asked in http://blogs.gnome.org/hughsie/2014/10/15/gnome-software-and-fonts/
I want to know if its okay to relicense all font package tags to add say "and CC-BY" in license tag. This value can be any of 5 permissible licenses as given in http://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-Metadata.html#sect-M....
I just filed https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/462 ticket also.
Thanks Parag

Replied on the ticket that precedent is likely the licensing of AppData files https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/414#comment:14
where it was determined that Fedora-generated AppData files should be the same as the upstream project's license. The appdata validate tool was adapted so that the way we invoked it did not trigger warnings on these license tags.
