== New License Matching Library ==

* Presented by Mikihito Matsuura
* Slides: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/10n5CSE_LP0HDznhb6_P6zmyA4QpKJX3b_VhOvnF3nuk/edit?usp=sharing
* PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/yalm/
* GitHub repo: https://github.com/m1kit/yalm-python/
* GitHub resources repo: https://github.com/m1kit/yalm-resources/tree/dist
* Uses 2 step process, word matching, then regex
* Looking to extend beyond python, to ruby, etc.
* Proposal JSON format for template – Should we standardize JSON?
* Vulnerable regexes in templates – regex matches may match unintended text
* What about a ML engine? Its focus is actual match rather than detection.
** Goal is license matching, not license detection
* Which matching guidelines are covered and which still needs to be implemented
** Some are not covered
** Suggest documenting which matching guidelines are not implemented
** Perhaps tune the matching guidelines and license templates
* Use of the XML format
** XML is used as input
* Additional questions and follow-up on a joint technical-legal team
* Suggestion PyPI should have spdx- in the name -

== Validate and Generate multiple representations of specifications ==
* Presented by Nirmal Praveen Suthar
* Slides: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/17xrxcJ-74DfFmdZl99ogZTWa-MOgKuKW1PH6Qq5C4sg/edit?usp=sharing
* Relevant links:
** Parser: https://github.com/spdx/spec-parser
** spec-v3-template example: https://github.com/spdx/spec-v3-template* Populates internal graph structure, namespace model. LALR is sufficient, but opportunity for improvement.
* Generate a JSON Representation of the Specification from Structured Markdown
* Transforms spec into “pretty markdown” and RDF OWL – the latter can be used to generate other schemas used by tools
* Validation and report of errors
* Reduce redundancy (e.g. handling defaults)
* Adds reference sections
