Noticed that License file is missing from this and many other packages. Is manjaro-xfce-settings open source software? Can it be a base for forking to be used for xfce-settings package for other custom distros/spins?

Manjaro brand name will still be protected as trademark and any fork will have to remove your trademarks (brand names references) and replace it with their own. I find this package attractive for our own lightweight (FOSS) fedora spin (with all trademark/manjaro removed but the with due acknowledgement in README. It will encourage contributions to manjaro repo as well.

Please clarify the license position on such packages/repos. If these are not FOSS packages, please put proprietary copyright notice/license for added clarity.
