I wanted to test some shell compatibility features recently, and I came across the need to test ksh88 like shell. I noticed there's heilroom-sh project [1, 2] that I'd like to package at least in Fedora Copr so I could easily test in the future. Though there are two license files I'm afraid are not really mentioned neither in good/bad list of licenses (attached) so far.
I believe they are good (BSD and CDDL modification), but I'd appreciate an explicit check, and perhaps fixing the Fedora licensing [3] wiki page.

Hi Pavel,
both licenses are listed as "good" licenses according to the Fedora licensing wiki page [1].
The license tag of the package will be "CDDL-1.0 and BSD with advertising".
The CDDL-1.0 requires that all resulting binaries or object files that are linked with object files licensed under the CDDL-1.0 terms and conditions can legally be relicensed to the CDDL-1.0 terms and conditions, which is in this case is permissible by the BSD license.
Thanks, Björn
