I filled in B2 based on answer to Q9 at 
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/repo-criteria-discuss/2021-06/msg00005.html. There's 
also Q13 but that is for A2.

I looked at the codeberg doc for this question, and noticed that 
it points users to https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list, 
https://opensource.org/licenses and https://choosealicense.com/ 
for choice of licenses 
(https://docs.codeberg.org/getting-started/first-repository/ ):

I'm not sure if the choice of licenses is discussed elsewhere on 
the docs.

By the way I could not navigate the https://docs.codeberg.org with 
librejs on:

Does that mean it fails C0?

Best,
