This checklist assumes the above to ensure that some points of the Policy such as rules on when copyright files can be symbolic links, etc., are respected.

  • A statement where the upstream sources were obtained (Policy 12.5§3).
  • A name or contact address (email, forum, bugtracker, …) for the upstream authors (individuals or organisations) (Policy 12.5§3).

  • For licensing information not written in the sources themselves, a mention about about and how the information was obtained (for example download link, email correspondance, …) (REJECT-FAQ)
