3.0 Model OMG Proposal

• Reviewed Will’s model proposal from Japan
• Discussed the analysis of the OMG model proposal
• Discussed the proposed changes to SPDX
  • Does not capture the simplification of the model that Will proposed. The intent of the analysis was to identify incompatibilities between the OMG model and SPDX 2.1
  • Thomas and Philippe expressed concern about adding required type attribute and other required changes that can be just derived from other parts of the document
    • Adds complexity and additional fields that are not required
  • Other changes were intended to be consistent with Will’s proposal and will be discussed as we continue development of the 3.0 model

Next Week
