I want to package them and need to know if the license for the whole repository is and will be Boost? E.g. does someone check new contributions for their license, so we can write a package description once and forget about it?

Thank you Dicebot - manager of Arch packages - for asking this
before:

Should a global LICENSE file be added to the repo as more and more people start redistributing the source .zip ?

Right now it is inline for every source file as I was not sure if conforming to common license was mandatory for inclusion into "tools" repo.
