Status: draft

Issue

See <a href="https://bugs.linuxfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1049">bug #1049</a>

Standard licensing notices need to be published in a machine readable way to facilitate the implementation of license text matching guidelines.

Proposal


Add a `standardNotice` property to the License class whose value is a string. The cardinality of this property would be "Optional, zero or one"

Detailed Changes

  • No changes are required in the Tag-Value section of the spec
  • The follow text would be added the the RDF terms document in the properties section of the the <a href="http://spdx.org/rdf/terms.html#License">License class details</a>:
    * standardNotice
       Cardinality: Optional, zero or one
  • The following text would be added to the RDF terms document immediately before the <a href="http://spdx.org/rdf/terms.html#supplier">supplier section</a> and an appropriate entry would be added to the properties index:

    Property: standardNotice

    The block of text specified in the license as the preferred way to declare that a work is covered by the terms of this license.

    Status:

    testing

    Domain:

    License

    Range:

    xsd:string   

  • The license license web site generator would be updated to add a "Standard Notice" section after the "Text" section in the details pages of license for which one is known and use RDFa to make that information machine readable.

 

 

 

 No changes are required to the tag-value section of the spec.
