Wrong license detection

Open Min-Kyungsun opened this issue 5 months ago • 1 comments

Description Please leave a brief description of the bug or feature request: The sentence "Business Source License 1.1" and license text of BUSL-1.1 should be detected as BUSL-1.1, but it is currently being detected as bsl-1.1 licence. The BUSL-1.1 licence has restrictions when used commercially, so it requires careful attention. However, it is being detected as the permissive license bsl-1.1, which poses a very high risk. Please correct this issue.
