Hi all,
Richard has been very busy reviewing licenses and related activities,
and consequently approx 13 new license submissions to SPDX on behalf of
Fedora. See:
https://github.com/spdx/license-list-XML/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+la...
Some of these have corresponding issues in our Gitlab data repo and
labeled as "blocked on SPDX."
From the SPDX side to best shepherd these, can I get a little help on
two aspects:
1) which of these submissions are priority from a Fedora perspective?
That is, are any package maintainers waiting on SPDX (I know some of
these are from leftover Fedora licenses we tagged as "needs more
research" when we did the initial compare, which seems to suggest it may
not be a blocking issue) - comments in the SPDX Github issue would be
appreciated as to any that should be prioritized above others.
2) By way of SPDX processes, when a license has been determined to be
accepted, we ask the submitter to help prepare the files for the SPDX
license data. However, I'm not sure if Richard should be on the hook for
all of these! Can anyone else from the Fedora legal community offer to
help with this part? If so, indicate in the relevant issue and SPDX
folks will point you to documentation to explain the process further
(it's pretty easy, even I can do it)
Thanks!
