- They use the SPDX license IDs in all of their documents and databases (including promoting publicly)
- And they check any licenses anyone supplies against our standard text
- Document Spec

- Large OEMs (car companies) are starting to require
- Customer requirements are making this a priority in 2015
- Will need to require from their own suppliers
- Integration with Yocto is critical
- Aiming for chain of trust, based on SPDX
- Questions
- When you evaluated SPDX, any features beyond hierarchy that they require?
- Not yet mature enough to completely evaluate
- How did you hear of? How can we promote?
- LinuxCon Europe session- Bruno came then promoted internally.
- He expects that in his space that SPDX will catch on quickly because of car makers requirements
- SPDX and Yocto- Is there only interest in Yocto integration or more general integration?
- Broader interest in integrating into process
