@AyanSinhaMahapatra I have added LicenseRef-scancode-ietf-rfc3492 to DejaCode. Permissive. Please synch the new definition and create corresponding detection rules, thanks!
@DennisClark this seems to be a duplicate of https://scancode-licensedb.aboutcode.org/punycode.html, can you check?
@AyanSinhaMahapatra thank you for identifying the duplicate license. I have updated DejaCode as follows:
I greatly appreciate your due diligence checking on the duplication.
The database already contains LicenseRef-scancode-ietf . This seems to be the license for much IETF content but there are sometimes other licenses as well. Example: Punicode (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc3492) seems to be under LicenseRef-scancode-ietf which is indicated on the last page (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc3492#page-35). This is not a FOSS license. However, there is another license that covers the sample code: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc3492#page-22 ... Disclaimer and license
