Hello Everyone, 

is the BSL-1 licence generally accepted for CRAN submissions or only in 
cases where libraries/headers from outside the CRAN ecosystem which are 
already BSL licenced are shipped (like in the BH package)?

If so, should I include the licence in the package or just reference it as 
"BSL-1" in the licence field? (It is not listed in the standard licences 
here [1]).

Thanks in advance, Tobias
