I'm in the process of updating the Debian package for OpenSFX. With all the new licenses on the sounds, I should be able to upload the package to Debian's main archive, rather than non-free, which is awesome.
However, the Debian copyright file needs fairly specific machine-readable copyright and licensing information. Most of that seems to present in src/opensfx.psfo, but I'm seeing some minor inconsistencies. In particular:
Most files are listed as Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported, but some (osfx_42.wav and osfx_43.wav) have Creative Commons Attribution 3.0. Since no port is specified explicitly, I'm assuming these two are also the unported versions (I checked the original files too, which also have no port specified, or are cc zero). Maybe good to add "Unported" to these files too?
The README only mentions CC-BY-SA 3.0 unported for the sound files (and GPL for the code), but opensfx.psfo also mentions CC-BY and CC-0. It seems the README is incomplete here, or is the idea that even though some separate sound files have more permissive licenses, the collection as a whole is licensed under the more restrictive CC-BY-SA (which is allowed AFAICS).
docs/license.txt only has CC-BY-SA, not CC-BY or CC-0, but I guess that's the same thing as the previous point.
docs/license.txt contains CDDL (and readme only mentions it), but I cannot find anywhere what it is used for. Is it still relevant?
