Minutes

• Beta Sites
  • Antelink - OpenLogic - OpenLogic is producing files.   On track to finish end of June.
  • WindRiver - HP  -  Got the tooling to work (some questions re error messages).  Sent the file over and HP was able to review for first package (30 files).  Now going to do zlib.  Then will do BusyBox and OpenSSL.
    • Some confusion about fitting things in the SPDX package licenses field (declared and concluded licenses for the package).  It's hard to say that there is a single license at the package level.  Mark thinks that declared license is what people "view" the package as.
    • According to Kate --
      • Declared - what the project says (like in the Copying file)
      • All Licenses in Files -- Laundry list of any license detected in file
      • Concluded -- what the analyzer concludes - can have ands and ors
    • Clearly there is still a lot of confusion about these license fields at the package level.
    • Kate -asked everybody to read the latest spec to see if it is clear.
• Update on spec -- new draft of spec up there -- needs review
