Re: Can GPLv3 packages be synced?

I hacked a script that tries to find out what license a file is under by looking for the "GNU General Public License as published ..." string in the top of the files. I also assumed that files with the extension png, xbm, and xpm can't be examined this way so they are ignored. Now the output is rather long so I hesitate to post it to the list today but wait for feedback. Could this kind of script be useful? In summary the output from the script reveals that there are 599 files left that my script does not find the GPL text. These files needs to be analysed one way or the other. On the other hand the script finds 932 files that does contain the GPLv2 text.
