8 I suggest that we add exactly one "no-source-code" pseudo license.
9 So binary-only BSD, MIT, etc. packages would be marked "BSD
10 no-source-code" or "MIT no-source-code". Since the "no-source-code"
11 license wouldn't be a member of the @FREE license group, installation
12 of such packages would be prevented with ACCEPT_LICENSE="@FREE".
