So I'm just a bystander here and should probably be ignored, but ...
>From what I can see, Nick is attempting one of those cross-tree cleanups
that's painful enough to do on its own. This request is asking him to
perform a different, unrelated, and potentially fraught cleanup that the
maintainers of the code in question have not yet managed to get around
to taking care of. This will impede an already prolonged process and,
IMO, unnecessarily so.
Wouldn't it be better to let this work proceed while making a note
of the files still needing SPDX tags?
I'll shut up now :)
Thanks,
