The license issue has blocked a comprehensive consolidation of the target
description.

The question if it's currently blocking is a bit philosophical.  If the
license issue was resolved, would there be anyone right now with the time
and motivation to take up the work?

OTOH, we generally accept that there can be multiple blocking issues,
all of which have to be resolved to allow a certain task to proceed.
