Ok, a few more questions concerning help patches:
choose from?
should this list acceptable DATATYPEs like "bang float list
symbol", or just the datatypes that are most likely to be useful for
this object, i.e., "bang float"?
GPL? I thought they were under the "Standard Improved BSD License"
unless explicitly stating otherwise in the source code.

And you are right: All of Pd vanilla is BSD, only [expr] and its relatives are GPL.

I think we only really talked about obvious ones, like VERSION,
AUTHOR, COPYRIGHT, DESCRIPTION. Don't remember anything about GENRE.
Perhaps that's something like a category. TAGS might also be
appropriate.
- For PD-meta DATATYPE, take "gatom-help.pd" as an example:

Hmm, donno, any record of such things would be in the pddp IRC chat
transcripts.

Yeah, what Frank said. Some externals are also GPLv3 or later, while
most are GPLv2 or later.
