To correctly fulfill the terms of some licenses you must know who the licensor is. Currently SPDX has no way to represent this in the situation where there are multiple licenses.
Proposal
Modify the spec in the following ways<p>
- <p>Introduce a
LicenseDeclarationentity type. Any number of instances of this type of entity would be allowing in an SPDX dataset.</p> - <p>A
LicenseDeclarationentity would have zero or morelicensorproperties whose values areAgents.</li> A
LicenseDeclarationentity would have exactly onelicensingproperty whose values is aAnyLicenseInfo.A
LicenseDeclarationentity would have zero or moredeclarerproperties whose values areAgents.Allow the value of the
licenseConcludedproperty to be aLicenseDeclarationin addition to the currently allowedAnyLicenseInfo.
</ul>
