This table is used to track license list requests and is maintained by the Legal team.

The SPDX Legal team tracks new '''License List Requests''' at:  https://docs.google.com/a/nexb.com/spreadsheets/d/11AKxLBoN_VXM32OmDTk2hKeYExKzsnPjAVM7rLstQ8s/edit?pli=1#gid=695212681  <br />
 +
Refer to the "Licenses Readme" worksheet in the document for an explanation of each of the columns in the list.
  
−
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.
+
The Legal team also tracks '''License Exceptions List Requests''' in the document at:  https://docs.google.com/a/nexb.com/spreadsheets/d/11AKxLBoN_VXM32OmDTk2hKeYExKzsnPjAVM7rLstQ8s/edit?pli=1#gid=0  <br />
 +
Refer to the "Exceptions Readme" worksheet in the document for an explanation of each of the columns in the list.

 +
Older license requests from release 1.20 or earlier are identified in the table below. Entries submitted prior to release 1.18 had their Date Submitted arbitrarily set to January 1, 2013.

"This license is used in some older software (e.g. The Traditional Vi)."
 +
 
 +
Per Tom Incorvia: "Due primarily to the licensing information stated prior to the slightly modified BSD-4-Clause, I would recommend that this be reviewed by SPDX as a license distinct from the BSD-4-Clause.  The platform limitations, in particular, appear to make this a distinct license." 
 +
 
 +
Because of significant differences in license terms, it was decided to call this license the Caldera License (Caldera) rather than BSD 4-clause Caldera License (BSD-4-Clause-Caldera), even though the text is generally structured in a manner similar to the BSD-4-Clause.

The SPDX Legal team tracks new License List Requests at: https://docs.google.com/a/nexb.com/spreadsheets/d/11AKxLBoN_VXM32OmDTk2hKeYExKzsnPjAVM7rLstQ8s/edit?pli=1#gid=695212681
Refer to the "Licenses Readme" worksheet in the document for an explanation of each of the columns in the list.

The Legal team also tracks License Exceptions List Requests in the document at: https://docs.google.com/a/nexb.com/spreadsheets/d/11AKxLBoN_VXM32OmDTk2hKeYExKzsnPjAVM7rLstQ8s/edit?pli=1#gid=0
Refer to the "Exceptions Readme" worksheet in the document for an explanation of each of the columns in the list.

Older license requests from release 1.20 or earlier are identified in the table below. Entries submitted prior to release 1.18 had their Date Submitted arbitrarily set to January 1, 2013.

Status Name Explanation
Accepted in v__ The license was added to indicated version of the SPDX License List. The SPDX License List 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.



Licenses Accepted in v1.20
License Full Name Short Identifier Template Needed Status Date Submitted Notes
Caldera License Caldera No 3 Accepted in v1.20 2014-04-01 See http://www.lemis.com/grog/UNIX/

Submitted by Maciej Wereski. "This license is used in some older software (e.g. The Traditional Vi)."

Per Tom Incorvia: "Due primarily to the licensing information stated prior to the slightly modified BSD-4-Clause, I would recommend that this be reviewed by SPDX as a license distinct from the BSD-4-Clause. The platform limitations, in particular, appear to make this a distinct license."

Because of significant differences in license terms, it was decided to call this license the Caldera License (Caldera) rather than BSD 4-clause Caldera License (BSD-4-Clause-Caldera), even though the text is generally structured in a manner similar to the BSD-4-Clause.

Sun Industry Standards Source License 1.2 (SISSL-1.2) 2 Accepted in v1.19 2013-7-18 http://gridscheduler.sourceforge.net/Gridengine_SISSL_license.html

" It also seems that there is a 1.2 version of this license (http://gridscheduler.sourceforge.net/Gridengine_SISSL_license.html )." from Camille Moulin camille.moulin@alterway.fr via lists.spdx.org, in the context of a discussion about whether the ID for SISSL (which has no version suffix) should be changed.

Artistic License (Perl) 1.0 2 Accepted in v1.19 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. Discussed on 6/6 legal call: http://wiki.spdx.org/view/Legal_Team/Minutes/2013-06-06 --> conferred with OSI and decided to add Artistic-1.0-cl8 and Artistic-1.0-Perl to reflect all contingencies here

Do What The F*ck You Want To Public License 3 Not Accepted 2013-12-27 we have version 2.0 on the list, but do not have previous versions. Also question about whether version number should be added to short identifier (i.e., WTFPL-2.0 instead of WTFPL currently)

Insufficient usage.
