Hello again,
as I'm obviously incapable of using e-mail at this time of day, I apologize again for the inconvenience of getting this mail so many times and hope that you'll answer *to this e-mail* instead of to the one to arch-general.
Sorry again. I guess it is time to take a nap...
Best, David

Hello to all,
I'm writing to you on a rather urgent note and I apologize if I may have send this mail twice to some of you.
The archiso repository [1] does not declare its license and to remedy this situation I would like to license the code base under the terms of the GPL-3.0-or-later [2]. For this I have opened a ticket [3] and an accompanying merge request [4]. However, I can not rightfully license the repository without full consent of previous contributors, which is what this mail is all about.
Please respond to this e-mail with a positive affirmation. If you are not on this mailing list anymore and you have been put in CC I will post your response to this mail to the mailing list for transparency.
I have extracted the list of direct contributors to the repository (keep the dups ;-) ):

Also thanks for doing this, because it in combination with other things nudged me into finally wrangling together the same thing for dbscripts (because I was lazy even though I've emailed people to start the process, back in December): https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-projects/2020-June/005375.html -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
