There are two relevant questions for mass conversion:
- Is there an unambiguous mapping from Callaway ID to SPDX ID?
- Are there other licenses that *should* be in the expression since we no longer use the
“effective license” concept?
The license-fedora2spdx tool can answer the first but not the second. There are a *lot* of
packages for which the answer to both questions is “yes.” Is the plan to do mass
conversion and hope that people follow up on auditing later?

Whenever I update a package to a new version etc. I look at the license tag and update it
to SPDX when possible. It takes about 30 seconds. I wonder if we could mass change the
8795 tags sooner than later to save the 73 hours of manual work?
