http://lingucomponent.openoffice.org/hyphenator.html (or a similiar page) should have information about the license for hyphenation patterns. Background: Most/many hyphenation patterns are derived from TeX/LaTeX patterns, but don't mention that fact. The original files are usually licensed under the LPPL, which has some requirements on derived work. See i#54505 and depending issues for this kind of lack of license and copyright information.
only for the record
