Hi Daiane and Otavio, 

I agree to manage the license files in a unified manner. 

The EULA in fsl-arm layer includes both Freescale EULA content and some other 3rd party license content, Freescale-EULA only includes the Freescale EULA content. 

Is there detailed description of the license whitelist mechanism? I am interested in whether it is applicable for LS1 and PPC packages which are under Freescale EULA or other proprietary license. 


Best Regards,

Zhenhua
