fix(license): replace Palimpsest body with canonical MPL-2.0 - #2
Conversation
…r ruling
Root LICENSE already declared the correct
SPDX-License-Identifier: MPL-2.0 on line 1, but its body was the full
PALIMPSEST-MPL LICENSE VERSION 1.0 text, contradicting its own header.
Replaced the body with the verbatim canonical MPL-2.0 text, keeping
the existing SPDX-License-Identifier and SPDX-FileCopyrightText header
lines per this repo's convention.
Per the owner's 2026-09-02 ruling (MPL-2.0 for code, CC-BY-SA-4.0 for
docs; estate PMPL sweep Tier 1, identity defects).
Scope note: this repo declares PMPL-1.0-or-later pervasively elsewhere
(Justfile, contractile.just, container/manifest.toml,
.machine_readable/**, .reuse/dep5 equivalent, CITATION.cff,
docs/legal/EXHIBIT-{A,B}-*, .github/copilot-instructions.md,
.github/GOVERNANCE.md, .well-known/ai.txt) — those are out of this
fix's scope (LICENSE body only) and are reported as survivors, not
edited. .github/workflows/rhodibot.yml (which automates
AGPL-to-PMPL header fixing) is also left untouched per instruction not
to edit workflow files.

WalkthroughThe ChangesLicence replacement
Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The root license now uses MPL-2.0 while container metadata still declares PMPL-1.0-or-later, which may give consumers conflicting license information. The change is mergeable with explicit owner acceptance and a follow-up relicensing update. Poem

Reconcile the licence metadata before merging.
LICENSE now provides MPL-2.0 text, but container/manifest.toml:18 still declares PMPL-1.0-or-later. A consumer of the container metadata can therefore receive licence information that conflicts with the root LICENSE. Update the manifest in the same coordinated change, or defer this replacement until the future relicensing pass updates that declaration.

Explicitly out of scope for this PR (survivors, reported not edited)
This repo declares PMPL-1.0-or-later pervasively beyond the LICENSE body — none of the following were touched, per this task's LICENSE-only scope:
Justfile,contractile.justcontainer/manifest.toml,container/Containerfile.machine_readable/ai/{.windsurfrules,.clinerules,.cursorrules,PLACEHOLDERS.adoc},.machine_readable/contractiles/trust/Trustfile.a2ml,.machine_readable/descriptiles/{META,AGENTIC}.a2ml,.machine_readable/compliance/rust/deny.toml,.machine_readable/compliance/reuse/dep5docs/attribution/CITATION.cff,docs/attribution/CITATIONS.adoc,docs/legal/EXHIBIT-A-ETHICAL-USE.txt,docs/legal/EXHIBIT-B-QUANTUM-SAFE.txt,docs/RSR_OUTLINE.adoc,docs/STATE-VISUALIZER.adoc,docs/developer/ABI-FFI-README.adoc,docs/governance/CRG-CRITERIA.a2ml,docs/decisions/0001-adopt-rsr-standard.adoc.github/copilot-instructions.md,.github/GOVERNANCE.md,.github/pull_request_template.md.well-known/ai.txt.github/workflows/rhodibot.yml— per instruction, workflow files are never edited by this task; this one is worth owner attention separately since it automates fixing AGPL headers to PMPL, i.e. it actively re-seeds the identity this PR is removing.This repo needs a dedicated follow-up relicensing pass beyond LICENSE-body-only Tier 1.
