during the work on Updatecheker I recognized another time that nearly every plugin is having its own copy of GPL. As most of the plugins code is licensed under GPL2+, what do you think of moving the individual copies of GPL into a central, geany-plugins-License as the package is most likely distributed under a common license and this would save a lot of space inside tarball etc.?
If the GPL copies are virtually the same I guess they won't take space when they're compressed.
Also what if an author wanted to distribute their plugin separately?
