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 </pre</li> <li><p>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.</p></li></ul>
