Erm,

> I've re-rolled these,

It appears I sent these without saving my edit.

I meant to say that I've re-rolled these, splitting them up, verifying 
the license in each case.

Thank you for the patch!

Kind regards,

Christina

Thanks both, since these commits are just changing metadata in a
repetitive way I squashed the changes in to a single commit and I've
pushed it to master as fca358e78f0602de25c399a9d5ab772270e091d7.
