** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: software-center
- 
  Currently, every package in the Partner repo shows "License: Unknown".
  We need a way to show either "Open Source" or "Proprietary" (defaulting
  to the latter) since certain packages like Alfresco and Openbravo are
  actually Open Source.
