Are we dicussing the request to take DEP-17 for a 3rd copyright file 
format, or more generally how to best integrate SPDX in copyright files, 
or something else?

Are we discussing one (or more) of those topics here or at d-devel, or 
both?!?

I tried to encourage keeping the broader discussion at d-devel by only 
pointing towards it from here, but perhaps that was wrong/silly...
