Files such as markers.js contain content released under a license that is not covered by the debian/copyright file.

Just to follow up on this one, here's the files that are missing and the license type if I could decipher: public_html/markers.js by Freepik CC BY 3.0 by Kaboldy CC BY-SA 3.0 public_html/coolclock/coolclock.js Copyright 2010, Simon Baird Released under the BSD License. public_html/coolclock/excanvas.js Copyright 2006 Google Inc.

The licence and copyright of _generic_plane_svg isn't clear to me. I started looking at the history but IIRC it comes down to a big dump of code with no specific licence.

Note that getting this cleared up is a requirement for trying to get dump1090 into Debian, and therefore to its derivatives.

The commit that added that SVG is this one, which predates my work on dump1090: https://github.com/MalcolmRobb/dump1090/commit/5f0e295580c34da34ecef3a37f03e9a9d57485ff

I have no further information about it; I can only assume it's covered by the original BSD license

Maintaining the copyright metadata is a low priority since the information is already present in the source; if someone wants to do the archaeology and submit a pull request, great, but otherwise this isn't going to happen any time soon.
