Fixing this wasn't easy, but I've committed (not released yet) code that
replaces the License widget with the new FilterSelect widget, this gets
the information about what categories their tied to and passes it to
jquery. A jquery piece then disables options not allowed.
The message returned to users is also improved, it now says what
licenses are allowed (this is for people with disable js)
Best Regards, Martin Owens

Hi Friends,
        Lazur mentioned to me that he's trying to upload a new filter 
set to
the gallery.  If I understand correctly, it won't upload, and the 
license
area becomes red.  I've guessed it's because he needs to use a certain
license for a filter set, but I'm not sure specifically which one. 
(Also
not sure if that's a correct guess.)  He had tried to use Public 
Domain.
(See the Chatbox on the index page of Inkscape Community, for details.)
Hi Brynn,
Yes, you're guessing correctly. The valid licences for Inkscape files
(i.e. those that potentially could be distributed with the program) are
set to GPL, LGPL and AGPL.
I'd also have added Public Domain and other free licences - but my
question about that topic has probably been lost.
I also find it frustrating to upload something, and to have to re-select
the file when the licence doesn't match (I think it should at least give
feedback on which ones are allowed when submission fails).
Would you like to make a bug report for this? (I don't know if that's
possible with django forms or if this needs some additional js. The
greying out would need AJAX to update the form when you switch the
category.)
Thanks,
 Kind regards,
 Maren
