Timing
Timing:
Goal to have full conversion and live by end of October 2016
As such, we decided it's okay to not have a Q3 release.
Action Items
1) Finish main review of all licenses so that all can merged (Who: ALL // WHEN: end of August)
This also includes:
- add exceptions to repository and review (KRIS to add // ALL to review)
- note from Gary: tools don't care whether in same or different directory
- how to deal with deprecated licenses (KRIS and GARY discussed)
- outcome: these files are needed for tools... (gary to add more info here, reivew on next call)
- add deprecated licenses to repository and review KRIS to add // ALL to review)
- do another pass and some other general clean-up, e.g., remove body tag (KRIS)
- licenses tagged as "required acknowledgment" do not merge, need another tag (KRIS)
2) Review various webpages for updating (Who: ALAN // When: End of August)
- license matching guidelines page
- license list overview page, including adding explanatory info about XML tags (http://wiki.spdx.org/view/Legal_Team/Templatizing/tags-matching)
- Alan to send via email in document for review before next call
3) Define a new process for License List, i.e., how to request a new license, what kind of pull requests we want, underlying process etc. (WHO: Jilayne // When: end of August)
- included checking with Kate re: moving license list to Github primary (instead of LF Git and mirrored to Github)
- Jilayne to send draft for review via email
4) Update spdx-tools for new XML format (including website generation) - for 5 different formats (WHO: Gary // When: mid- to late- September)
- Gary already has basic structure in place; time frame needs to be such that he could do testing in mid- to end-September
5) Have preview of website so we can check it (WHO: Gary & Jilayne // When: end of Sept)
- probably then one more pass at tools, etc.
===6) Create new tool to take text of new license and convert to XML file (WHO: Kris? // When: doesn't have to be done for release in Oct)
- to do so by hand is a bit tedious. Will still need human review before finalizing
