Hello Luis,
thanks for the comments. Yes, as you said those JavaScript files are actually generated by rdoc and I forgot to check them.
I just took a look at the files and I saw that:
* it specifies that uses Silk Icons (http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/silk/) that have a CC-BY 2.5 (or 3.0) license.
- jQuery Javascript Library v1.6.2 contains the copyright notice specifying MIT or GPL v2
* also includes Sizzle.js that is specified as MIT, BSD or PLG v2.
- navigation.js, search.js, search_index.js and searcher.js do not have any specific license attached.
What do you think about these files? My opinion is, correct me if I'm wrong, for Darkfish, Silk Icons, jQuery and Sizzle I report those licenses in the doc/README file.
For the other four files, how should I behave? Are they licensed according to Ruby license, since the belong to Ruby standard library?
About them, I've searched in the Ruby 2.0 source package and I've found this json_index.rb file ([RUBY]/lib/rdoc/generator/json_index.rb) that contains references to those files and these comments:
- The JsonIndex generator is designed to complement an HTML generator and produces a JSON search index. This generator is derived from sdoc by Vladimir Kolesnikov and contains verbatim code written by him.

Hi, Marco.
While evaluating the project I have noticed a few problems which are described below.
Please write appropriate copyright and license notices, at the beginning of all the JavaScript files in the doc directory. If these files are auto-generated by rdoc and you can't add the notices, add a README file to the doc directory specifying the copyright and license of these files. Check http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html and http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Copyright-Notices.html for more information on how to apply such notices.
Also, as a reference for adding copyright and license notices to JavaScript files, please read The JavaScript Trap.
Once you have updated your project with the changes above, please attach a new tarball using the tracker and we'll approve your project if it's compliant.
Regards.
