Licenses

It would be great if vendorize could output a file specifying the license for each vendorised package.

There's a page here with various solutions

@stuaxo if the vendored wheel or package has a license, it will end up in the vendored dir.
Otherwise, accurate license detection and reporting is a larger problem. I maintain https://github.com/nexB/scancode-toolkit for this... (and I use vendorize in aboutcode-org/scancode-toolkit#3193 )

Wow, that's pretty comprehensive - I was imagining something much more naive.

scancode looks pretty usefu;
