STRUCTURE

254       The regexp patterns follows the DefHash specification, and more
255       specifically the structure of Regexp::Pattern, defining access to one
256       pattern per DefHash object, as "pat".
257
258       Additionally, (sub)patterns are available in plaintext form, as
259       "pat.alt.*".
260
261   SUBJECT
262       Each pattern targets one or more subjects, i.e. ways to directly or
263       indirectly represent a license.
264
265       Beware that not all pattern objects fully cover all subjects.
266
267       trait
268           Distinguishing trait or feature expressed in licensing strings,
269           e.g. an advertising clause or granting "...or any later version."
270
271           Coverage for this subject is currently rather weak.
272
273       name
274           Distinguishing name, e.g. usable in license grant.
275
276       grant
277           Text granting the license.
278
279       license
280           Text containing licensing terms.
281
282           Texts containing both license grant and licensing terms (e.g. BSD-
283           and MIT-style licensing) may be classified as either subject grant
284           or subject license.  This may change, as needs for distinction is
285           better understood.
286
287   SCOPE
288       Each pattern can process material within some scope, i.e. a certain
289       sample size of the full subject.
290
291       As an example, <https://codesearch.debian.net/> use line-based
292       processing, where patterns spanning multiple lines are not applicable.
293
294       line
295           Pattern typically found within a single line.  Typically this means
296           less than 70 characters within scope.
297
298       sentence
299           Pattern matching within a sentence.
300
301           May span multiple lines, but not across multiple sentences.
302           Typically this means no full-stop or colon within scope.
303
304       paragraph
305           Pattern matching distinguishing paragraph.
306
307           May span multiple sentences, but not multiple paragraphs.
308           Typically this means no newline within scope.
309
310       section
311           Pattern matching distinguishing section.
312
313           May span multiple paragraphs, but not multiple sections.  Typically
314           this means blank line within scope.
315
316       multisection
317           Pattern may span multiple sections.
318
319   TAGS
320       Pattern defhashes optionally includes tags, which may help in selecting
321       multiple related patterns.
322
323       Tags are hierarchical, with ":" as separator, and may be extended
324       without notice.  Therefore take care to permit sub-parts when tag-
325       matching, e.g. using a regex like " /\Asome:tag(?:\z|:)/ ".
