You might also be interested in checking out "Ninka, a license identification tool for Source Code" by some software engineering researchers at the University of Victoria and at Osaka University. http://ninka.turingmachine.org/ I don't know how it compares to licensecheck.

Re: gravatar on bugs.debian.org - acceptable or not?

Using that, you could either default to the domain logo/country flag like gmane does when there's no associated user picon, or default to no image, and display the user's picon when it exists. I'd prefer if those pictures could _also_ be fetched from some debian.org/debian.net ressource, just like the hackergotchis on planet, maybe even just using those. If you used picons, they'd be server from a local debian.org/debian.net ressource. You would probably want to provide an better means of updating the database than waiting for the package to be updated though. Either sync from picons upstream[1] (users DB was last updated on the the 12th, the domains DB on the 14th) and have people submit there, or allow people to submit a picon to the local DB[2], and just source from there. (You could probably import planet hackergotchis into your personal DB).

Re: New Debian kilts

From what I remember when I got my kilt, 700£ is really really pricey. I know that North-America is probably on the wrong side of the world for most of the people interested in ordering, but I recommend Burnett Struth's[0] as a kilt maker. They're located just north of Toronto, Canada. They made my personal kilt (combination of machine and hand sewing) out of a very uncommon tartan (I think it had to be custom woven since nobody kept it in stock) for about 650–700 CAD (~410–440£), tax included. The fabric was heavy weight (16oz I think) at that. On a side note, they also made my band kilt, which is 25 years old and still looks great apart from wear on the leather buckle straps (easily worn 10-15 times a year).
