I like that, as long as this list is not maintianed in the
DFSG. I think we should really rteally think hard before modifying
the DFSG.
However, a list of common popular licenses that have been
examined and are known to qualify would be a good thing, as long as
no claim is made about correctness or completeness which may open us
up to liability.
