I have submitted pyp to Fedora (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=805332) but there is no copyright notice or license in the source code. This prevents it from being accepted by Fedora (and probably most other distros). The website says it is the New BSD License, but this would need to be in the source code too to meet the requirements of Fedora.

Can a copyright notice and license be put in the source code?

yes, I'll add it. Can you send me an example of what you expect?

thanks,

Something like this at the top of the file would work, replacing Sony Pictures Imageworks with the appropriate copyright holder. I got it from http://www.opensource.org/licenses/bsd-license.php .

pyp has been updated with this information. Please download from the source tab...I won't have a chance to update the pypi version for a week or two.
