PEP 639 recommends the use of SPDX license identifiers.

At the moment the license key is ignored by flit, see pypa/flit#525. However, it's still possible to replace it now. Once the support in flit is added, the value will be used automatically.

At some point, the table will need be be changed to just a string for full PEP 639 compliance. That requires support for it first though. The change is also pretty simple.

-license = {text = "BSD-3-Clause"}
+license = "BSD-3-Clause"

I'm going to close this for now. Once Flit supports license = "string" and license_files = [...], you're welcome to create a PR for that.
