How is it different from declared license and concluded license for a file?<br /> ** Is there a need for declared license?<br /> ** We need a better distinction between licenseInfoInFile, declaredLicense, and concludedLicense (especially between the first two)<br /> ** Declared license is a statement by the copyright holder. licenseInfoInFile is the actual text found.<br /> ** Example:<br /> *** licenseInfoInFile = MIT<br /> *** licenseInfoInFile = BSD 4 clause<br /> *** licenseInfoInFile = GPL 2+<br /> *** licenseInfoInFile = LicenseRef-22<br /> *** licenseDeclared = (MIT and BSD 4 clause and GPL2+ and LicenseRef-22)<br /> *** licenseConcluded = GPL2+<br /> ** agree to keep licenseInfoInFile and it is NOT a subproperty of licenseConcluded<br /> ** What is the precise definition for declared license? General the language from the spec for package.<br /> ** agree to keep licenseConcluded - the definition will be a generalization of the package licenseConcluded in 1.2<br /> ** should licenseConcluded be optional? NOASSERTION is really the optional component<br /> ** Definitions:<br /> *** licenseInfoInFile = a single license ID per actual licensey text found IN this (text) file. <br /> (This is ideal field for a scanner to populate. <br /> Four possible kinds of values 'none', 'noassertion', SPDXID, LicenseRef-ID)<br /> <br /> *** licenseDeclared = (NEW for 2.0 - can be applied to any copyrightable SPDXItem, including all the way down to File) = <br /> ('licenseDeclared' was a license EXPRESSION at Package level only)<br /> NOW: 'licenseDeclared' licenses declared by the authors of the ITEM (where ITEM could be a Package, File, even Snippet)<br /> (&quot;Three&quot; possible kinds of values 'none', 'noassertion', or license EXPRESSION)<br /> <br /> *** licenseConcluded: a license EXPRESSION that is concluded (by a reviewer)<br /> (&quot;Three&quot; possible kinds of values 'none', 'noassertion', or license EXPRESSION)<br /> <br /> [[Category:Technical|Minutes]]<br /> [[Category:Minutes]]</div>
