Biz Team Report - Jack¶

v2.0 overview and requirements are near final
Still open to comments
Will run through our tech doc process
Working on agenda for Collaboration Summit
Tech Team will have a full day meeting on v2.0 at the venue on the Tuesday before
We will have a track during the conference
- Mix of presentations and working sessions
The search for a new co-lead is nearing completion

On going
Some new license requests
Marking up licenses
Fedora list resolution is somewhat stalled and needs a jumpstart
FOSDEM report
There was a presentation on SPDX in the legal track
- The presenter showed up late
- Conference organizers were not happy with that and there were some issues with content
- Did not reflect well on SPDX, so we need some quality control for conference presence.

OSI
Phil has reached out to initiate more collaboration
Hoping to initiate a meeting to discuss how we might cooperate in the OSI projects
- License Chooser
- License Compatibility Tools
- Machine readable license text
Aiming for a small joint meeting to kick off
Phil posted language describing direction in 2.0 spec section of SPDX.org
License Expression Syntax - MarkG
Cross functional effort between Tech and Legal Teams to define formal but simple and flexible mechanism for expressing complex licensing of some packages (multiple licensing, exceptions, etc)
Will essentially use Boolean operators and parentheses.
Productive kick off meeting yesterday; agreement on the issue and reasonable alignment on the approach
One more meeting before Collab Summit with the goal of having a draft for discussion at the Summit
