Hello,
According to SVG specifications[1] and freedesktop's mime database[2],
the compressed .svg files should be named *.svgz (not .svg.gz)
Files that are named *.svg.gz are identified as application/x-gzip
instead of image/svg+xml-compressed.

I am looking for some statistics of the [main] licenses used in Debian
packages (or some statistics about the license used in open-source
software at large).
Are you aware of such analyze?
