Fwd: Re: [Nurmukhamed/centos-7-build-asterisk-rpms] License missing (#2)

[Elan Ruusamäe]

the copying file was present in CVS


http://cvs.pld-linux.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/cvs/SPECS.old/COPYING

http://cvs.pld-linux.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/cvs/packages/COPYING


but lost with git migration because there's no place to put the file.
