+# Wiki License History
+
+The wiki originally had no explicit licensing text. This has been fixed since
+the wiki commit
+[COPYING: The wiki is now dual licensed under CC-BY-SA-3.0 and GPL v3+](http://git.notmuchmail.org/git/notmuch-wiki/commit/8ca2edf66a79cd4dcc628cafc0c9801007f2ab71)
+with the addition of [[COPYING]]. To be able to do that all the commits before
+the license change had to be accounted for; this page is a description of it for
+posterity.
+
+All the content in the wiki fell into one of these categories, in decreasing
+order of quantity:
+
+* The authors have agreed that all of their contributions to the notmuch
+ wiki can be dual licensed under CC-BY-SA-3.0 and GPL v3+.
+
+* The content is copied from the notmuch main repository and is licensed
+ under GPL v3+. Effectively this is the man pages.
+
+* The authors have not been reached but their contribution have been a
+ very minor or trivial change or cleanup of content falling into above
+ categories.
+
+* The authors have not been reached but the content has been deleted.
+
+Below is first a list of authors who have agreed to the license change. Next is
+a list of commits identifying the content in the last three categories. Finally,
+at the end of the page, is a script for verifying the commits in the wiki
+repository against the authors and the commits.

+## License Check Script
+
+You can put the above lists to two files, and run them through this script to
+show all commits that are not accounted for by one way or another (if everything
+is well, this should not print anything).
+
+ #!/bin/sh
+
+ if [ "$#" != 2 ]; then
+ echo "usage: $0 agree.txt ignore.txt"
+ exit 1
+ fi
+
+ # cutoff point where license was switched

+
+ # file listing all authors that have agreed to license change
+ agree=$1
+
+ # file listing all commits that can be ignored
+ ignore=$2
+
+ # for each commit from authors that have *not* agreed to license change
+ for commit in $(git log --format="format:%H %aN <%aE>" $cutoff | \
+ grep -v -f $agree | cut -f 1 -d " "); do
+
+ # display commits that are *not* trivial, cleanup, deleted, etc.
+ if ! grep -q $commit $ignore; then
+ git --no-pager show $commit
