chore(licence): de-PMPL — correct proven to MPL-2.0 throughout (38 files)#173
Merged
Conversation
proven is a sole-owner repo licensed MPL-2.0 (root LICENSE + LICENSES/), but was pervasively mislabelled PMPL-1.0 / Palimpsest-MPL across badges, the NOTICE, package manifests, binding READMEs, and two binding LICENSE files. Owner-directed correction (2026-06-26): repo is MPL-2.0; docs CC-BY-SA-4.0; LICENSES/ holds the texts of licences actually in use (MPL-2.0 + CC-BY-SA-4.0). Corrected (38 files): - README badge, NOTICE (rewritten to plain MPL-2.0), ROADMAP, MAINTAINERS, arXiv paper, TUI about-screen label, http/concat/tui domain READMEs - Published package manifests -> license = MPL-2.0: typescript/package.json, php/composer.json, ruby/proven.gemspec, fsharp/Proven.fsproj, racket/info.rkt, elixir/mix.exs, lua/*.rockspec - ~18 binding README licence sections (incl. stray 'Polymath Public License' and 'Palimpsest-MPL' expansions) -> MPL-2.0 - bindings/dart/LICENSE (was full PMPL text) + bindings/r/LICENSE -> MPL-2.0 text - removed stray license/PMPL-1.0.txt (PMPL not in use; LICENSES/ is canonical) Left untouched (intentional): contractile.just + Trustfile.a2ml grep-pattern lists (validation logic), SECURITY-CRITICAL-FIXES-PLAN.md (documents this very correction). No SPDX headers were swept — proven had zero PMPL SPDX headers; these were licence-name strings.

Summary
Owner-directed licence correction (2026-06-26).
provenis a sole-owner repo licensed MPL-2.0 (rootLICENSE+LICENSES/), but was pervasively mislabelledPMPL-1.0/ Palimpsest-MPL across badges,NOTICE, package manifests, binding READMEs, and two binding LICENSE files. This corrects the repo to MPL-2.0 throughout; docs remain CC-BY-SA-4.0;LICENSES/holds exactly the texts of licences in use (MPL-2.0 + CC-BY-SA-4.0).Scope was explicitly confirmed with the owner before sweeping (this is the shape of neurophone#99, but with prior approval this time).
