Comment(by mako):

 Here's a little more information on what I'm planning.


  * With the help of the RPM database, I've created a list of software
 installed on the system and which license it is under;
  *  I have gone off and retrieved every license currently being used;
  * I am making a list of exceptions to common licenses and am storing
 these;

 All of this data will be installed in the system, probably in
 /usr/share/licenses.
