Please note if you are wondering where your project is, we only archived to bigquery open source projects. So add an open source license for reals?

Out of curiosity, how do you automatically(/programatically) "detect" that a project (repo) is open source? The presence of a LICENSE file that contains the text of the BSD|GPL|MIT|... license?
