Revision as of 16:46, 6 June 2013
This table is used to track license list requests and is maintained by the Legal team.
We started tracking license requests in this table after release 1.18 of the License List. Entries submitted prior to that had their Date Submitted arbitrarily set to January 1, 2013.
| Status Name | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Accepted vX.yy | The license was added to the SPDX License List for the version indicated. The version indicated may be yet to be released in the case where a license is accepted in between SPDX License List releases. |
| Under Review | A license addition has been requested and is currently under review. |
| Not Accepted | The license was reviewed by the Legal Team and it was decided to not add the license to the SPDX License List at this time. |
| On Hold | This means that more research is needed or there are other extenuating factors that have prevented a decision on the addition of the license to be made. See the Notes for more information. |
| License | Status | Date Submitted | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Artistic License (Perl) 1.0 | Under Review | 2013-6-03 | http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.licenses.spdx.legal/557
Even though, the ‘Artistic License – 1.0’ and ‘Artistic License – 2.0’ are included in the SPDX License List, I feel a need to also include the ‘‘Artistic License (Perl) – 1.0’. The ‘Artistic License (Perl) - 1.0’ contains an extra clause and is used in a wide range of PERL based programs. |
| Zend Engine v2.0 | On Hold | 2013-01-01 | Unicode License Agreement for Data Files and Software – are there other versions or other Unicode licenses? It does not appear so, based on the info on this page: http://www.unicode.org/copyright.html ... → realized that Fedora has a different Unicode license (for Character Database, Fedora uses short identifier: UCD, found here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing:UCD?rd=Licensing/UCD ) than the Unicode license above from the FSF list. more research needed to see if there are others, so can appropriately name, etc. |
| "old" MIT | On Hold | 2013-01-01 | See http://blog.gmane.org/gmane.comp.licenses.spdx.legal/day=20121201 |
| Unlicense | On Hold | 2013-01-01 | see thread here: http://search.gmane.org/?query=unlicenseamp group=gmane.comp.licenses.spdx.legal |
| US Gov't works | On Hold | 2013-01-01 | add short identifier to list; see email from David Wheeler |
| GPL-2.0 identifier | On Hold | 2013-01-01 | issue of potential confusion with short identifier "GPL-2.0" meaning GPLv2 only; whereas GPLv2 or later, uses short identifier "GPL-2.0+" should short identifier be changed to "GPL-2.0-only" for symmetry and clarity?
|
| FLORA | Not Accepted | 2013-01-01 | decided not to add at this point in time, pending completion of license inclusion guidelines. see http://blog.gmane.org/gmane.comp.licenses.spdx.legal/month=20121101 for most recent thread on the topic and meeting minutes where discussed at: Legal_Team/Minutes/2012-10-31 |
| Unicode | On Hold | 2013-01-01 | to add? (from FSF list) - Unicode LIcense Agreement for Data Files and Software – are there other versions or other Unicode licenses? It does not appear so, based on the info on this page: http://www.unicode.org/copyright.html ... → realized that Fedora has a different Unicode license(for Character Database, Fedora uses short identifier: UCD, found here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing:UCD?rd=Licensing/UCD ) than the Unicode license above from the FSF list. more research needed to see if there are others, so can appropriately name, etc. |
| Artistic-Perl-1.0 | Under Review | 2013-06-06 | Original email with attachment: http://search.gmane.org/?query=Artistic+Perl+Supriya&author=&group=gmane.comp.licenses.spdx.legal+&sort=relevance&DEFAULTOP=and&xP=artistic%09perl&xFILTERS=Gcomp.licenses.spdx.legal---A
From the email:
A formatted text file with the license text from the URL provided in #3 has been attached with this e-mail. Even though, the ‘Artistic License – 1.0’ and ‘Artistic License – 2.0’ are included in the SPDX License List, I feel a need to also include the ‘‘Artistic License (Perl) – 1.0’. The ‘Artistic License (Perl) - 1.0’ contains an extra clause and is used in a wide range of PERL based programs.
