Agenda
1) v2.5 is now live - send email that it's live now to general call and re-sort
2) XML files and review - what needs to be done to get to release stage:
- finish main review of licenses so that all can merged and other clean-up (see sub-list below)
- exceptions need to be added to XML - Kris will add to Github for review, will probably put them in own pull requests (tools don't care whether in same or different directory)
- same situation for deprecated licenses - Gary's point that need XML for tools (Gary and Kris were going back and forth on whether own XML files needed for this or not) - to check on outcome of this
- review various webpages for updating (Alan)
- * License matching guidelines page
- * License list overview page; add info/explanation about XML tags
- define a new process for License List (how to request a new license, what kind of pull requests we want, underlying process etc.)
- Gary to update spdx-tools for new XML format (including website generation) - for 5 different formats
- * Gary already has basic structure in place; time frame such that he could do testing in mid- to end-September
- * end-of September would aim to have preview of website so we can check it, probably then one more pass at tools, etc.
- need new tool to take text of new license and convert to XML file (to do so by hand is a bit tedious). Will still need human review before finalizing. (doesn't have to be done for release stage)
Other notes on XML review:
- opening and closing <SPDX> tag are not always same case - should be all upper-case
- discussion on what to do about some licenses that were flagged as having self-referring numbering - will save this data even tho not complete, just in case we want to go that route later; can be an attribute that is not "seen" at this point; don't merge these yet, Kris will add attribute and merge.
- for those that are tagged as "requires acknowledgement" - reminder, don't merge, Kris to deal with those all at once
- body tag to be removed
- Kris to do another pass to do some clean-up
Timing:
- ok to not have Q3 release and aim to have this all done mid-quarter --> end of October
