I think as long as a top-level license and a clear statement of
licensing intent are present (which it sounds like they are, between the
AGPL file and the README.md), with no indications of proprietary
licensing for any files, we can accept that.

If a volunteer has the time, it'd be great to submit patches to PeerTube
to add the per-file license headers, but I don't think that's necessary
for them to be added to the Directory.
