'''<big>SPDX 2.0 Specification Project Overview</big>'''

__TOC__

<br />

= Objectives =

This is the next major release of the specification. SPDX 2.0 will extend the specification beyond the package level scope and enhance it to address relationships between artifacts.

You can read up on the user requirements and stories here [http://wiki.spdx.org/images/SPDX-TR-2014-3.v1.0.pdf User Requirements and Stories ]

<br />

== Overall Status ==

New plan is to launch the specification by Linux Collab 2015 which is in February . This looks very doable as the first draft of the specification was put onto the technical team mailing list on 11/17.

<br />

= Milestones =

The target date is set by the Milestone owner. When completed, the date will be changed to say COMPLETE. The milestone owner should also update the Status column as appropriate.
