What is the URL of the page with the issue?

https://pkg.go.dev/bazil.org/fuse

What did you do?

The pkg.go.dev site for the https://github.com/bazil/fuse package does not show the package's documentation because of a license issue. The licensecheck result for the package's LICENSE is:

95.8% of text covered by licenses:
BSD-3-Clause at [0:1532] IsURL=false
HPND at [1594:2529] IsURL=false
BSD-2-Clause at [2643:4165] IsURL=false

HPND (historial permission notice and disclaimer) is not included on the list of recognized licenses. Can that license be added to the list? It is OSD-compliant.

What did you expect to see?

That the documentation for this package would be displayed

What did you see instead?

A license error.

Legal has approved this license and it has been added to the acceptable list, however, it looks like there is a lot of variation in the ‘official’ license text which may be hard to automatically detect and validate. /cc @jba @julieqiu
