+Many PKGBUILDs and associated files comes from one of these projects:
+- Arch Linux
+- Arch Linux ARM
+- Arch Linux 32
+- Aur (Arch User repository)
+
+They typically come without a license, so while most of them seem to
+be uncopyrightable due to their extreme simplicity and standardness,
+this still creates some legal uncertaincy about their licensing.
+
+Some PKGBUILDs also come from Hyperbola, and here there is also some
+uncertaincy as the project added a CC0 license in its git repository
+without adding any clear statement associated with it. We still need
+to contact them to get more clarification on their PKGBUILDs licenses
+for new contributions.
+
+Several PKGBUILDS (and associated files) in this repository were
+created from scratch, so they don't depend on other projects licensing
+decisions.
+
+And several contributors agreed to license their past and future
+contributions to PKGBUILDs in this repository under the CC0 license:
+- Andreas Grapentin
+- bill-auger
+- Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
+- Freemor
+
+As for patches, as they are combined with original project source code
+they are usually under the same license. \ No newline at end of file
