Subject: [PATCH] distribute_license: added class to copy license files

* This class can be used to copy license files from package
  sources into the deploy directory so they can be distributed.
* By default it searches the top-level source directory for
  files matching COPYING* or LICENSE*
* Search depth and pattern can be modified using the
  LICENSE_SEARCH_DEPTH and LICENSE_FILES variables
  respectively.
* Thanks to Koen Kooi and Bernhard Reutner-Fischer for their
  inputs and suggestions.

+# This class is used to collect license files such as COPYING or

+# This package uses the following variables to control its operations:
+#   - LICENSE_FILES         = Pattern of license files to be searched for.
+#                             By default this is COPYING* and LICENSE* but
+#                             this can be changed per package.
+#   - LICENSE_SEARCH_DEPTH  = The maximum depth to search in the package
+#                             sources for files matching the LICENSE_FILES
+#                             pattern.
+
+
+# Files to copy for the licensing.  By default this is looking for
+# files following the patters COPYING* or LICENSING* in the top
+# level sources directory.
