Comment (by hinder):

 From a private email discussion amongst a few of us back in March 2014,
 Erik said that the flesh and the Cactus thorns are LGPL, and this was
 changed from the "Cactus GPL+linking exception" to clarify the situation.
 Maybe this change did not get properly implemented in all the COPYRIGHT
 files.

 The source files do not contain individual copyright notices
 (https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html).

 Many Cactus READMEs claim LGPL, which results from a batch addition of the
 licence by Frank Löffler on 27-Jan-2009.

 {{{
 arrangements $ grep -ih "Licence" Cactus*/*/README|sort -u
 Licence      : GPL
 Licence      : GPLv2+
 Licence      : LGPL
 }}}

 There are 88 READMEs claiming a licence.  9 of them are GPL, 78 of them
 are LGPL, and 1 of them is GPLv2+.

 Erik referred in his email to a "current agreement amongst the
 maintainers" regarding the licencing.  Does anyone know if this is written
 down somewhere, and if not, should we do so?
