Persists the five prior-art/legal research artifacts and the original
draft skeleton as dated history/ records (260729- prefix, git mv to
preserve history), consistent with this repo's convention that history/
holds dated non-normative artifacts rather than living working documents:
- history/260729-TRSL-PriorArt-Survey.md
- history/260729-TRSL-Terminology-Guardrails.md
- history/260729-TRSL-FutureLicense-PatentPrecedent.md
- history/260729-TRSL-ContributorRights-Research.md
- history/260729-TRSL-Jurisdiction-StandardTerms.md
- history/260729-TargetRevenueSourceLicense-Draft.md (superseded)
Adds specs/TargetRevenueSourceLicense-V1C1.md: the first candidate written
as actual operative license text (11 sections: definitions, noncommercial
grant, commercial-use restriction, patent license, automatic conversion,
successive phases, termination/cure, warranty/liability, trademarks,
general provisions) rather than a bracket-annotated skeleton. Carries a
prominent preliminary-status notice near the top and a non-normative
Appendix A tracking the nine items still needing legal resolution before
any candidate can become official Version 1.0.
Updates all cross-references (README, PRD, TSD, SCOPE, workplan) to the
new paths; the workplan's T06 human-accept gate now points at V1C1.

Moves TargetRevenueLicenseConcept.md from the separate singular spec/
directory into specs/ (git mv, preserving history) and updates every live
cross-reference (README, CONTRIBUTING, all specs/*.md, workplans, schema
comments, source docstrings, test file) to the new path.
This resolves the spec/ vs specs/ split that history/260728-SWOT-Assessment.md
flagged as a "perpetual footgun" and recommended deciding on. The historical
record of that split and the recommendation itself are left unedited in
history/ (a dated assessment, not a living document) — only README and TSD
now document the merge as resolved, with a pointer back to that history file
for context.

Five research artifacts under specs/research/, grounded in primary-source
license text fetched live rather than relying on training-data recall:
- TRSL-PriorArt-Survey.md: BSL 1.1, FSL, PolyForm Noncommercial, Fair
Source, Elastic License 2.0. Confirms TRSL's closed {MIT, Apache-2.0}
Future License enum and no per-Phase custom license text follows FSL's
deliberate fix for BSL's "Additional Use Grant" variability problem.
- TRSL-Terminology-Guardrails.md: confirms via OSI OSD Clause 6 that
pre-conversion TRSL cannot be Open Source; confirms README's existing
guardrail table without change.
- TRSL-FutureLicense-PatentPrecedent.md: MIT has no patent language; Apache
2.0 has an explicit contribution-scoped grant + litigation termination.
Recommends TRSL's pre-conversion phase also carry an express patent grant.
- TRSL-ContributorRights-Research.md: confirms via DCO 1.1 text that a DCO
alone is insufficient for TRSL's dual-future-license promise; recommends
a narrowly-scoped CLA over copyright assignment.
- TRSL-Jurisdiction-StandardTerms.md: deepens German §31/§32 UrhG (primary-
confirmed) and §307 BGB Transparenzgebot (secondary-confirmed, flagged
for counsel verification); corrects scope re: EU UCTD 93/13/EEC being
consumer-only vs. German AGB law covering B2B too. Ranks five terms most
needing objective definitions.
specs/TargetRevenueSourceLicense-Draft.md (T06) synthesizes all five into a
non-binding skeleton with every clause tagged [CONFIRMED BY RESEARCH],
[LEGAL], [WORKING DEFAULT], or [OPEN]. Per the T06 human-accept gate, the
workplan task stays `todo` — ready for review, not accepted.
