I traced back from Rdatasets to the original R packages. Every one of the packages are licensed as some combination of GPL-2 and GPL-3 However it's likely that some of the datasets are not copyrightable. Here's my badly formatted notes of the name of the dataset and the link to the R package documentation, and what GPL license it's available under. How should this be formatted to be shipped with Debian? https://ghic.org/~diane/debian/statsmodels.datasets.README.txt Does it go in README.source? or in upstream/metadata? or something else? I could also ask one of the campus librarians to help review the datasets to determine if they should or shouldn't be copyrightable. My current WIP patch for the documentation is here: The Debian copyright file still needs to be updated, and the citations need to be listed. https://ghic.org/~diane/debian/statsmodels-0001-add-patch-use-cached-da tasets-and-cache-all-of-the-g.patch Diane
