Check the software licenses of third-party software used by this project #1321

Description

@mhucka

Is your feature request related to a use case or problem?

There have been a lot of changes and additions over the past year that involve adding dependencies and requirements for software tools, but we have not checked carefully that the software licenses are compatible with usage inside commercial entities such as Google, or by their employees. We need to check all the software used and verify there are no problems.

What solution or approach do you envision?

Start by making a list of all the third-party packages required in the python requirements files and also the tools used in check/ scrips, then identifying their licenses, then checking them against Google guidance.

How urgent is this for you?

P1 – needed by the next release
