JSON File discussion¶
- Overview provided of the JSON file and Kyle's contribution
- Do we add this now?
- Agreed OK to add
- Do we make it public?
- Proposal to wait until Linux con to announce
- Allows for time for feedback
- Once available we can create a link
- Make a news article that we're looking at it
- Proposal REST API's for license list
- Generally agreed that the name "licenses.json" was OK, but there may be some future conflict if we add other JSON formats (e.g. with more detail).
- Agreed to start a thread on the name of the license list file on the tech list
Snippets¶
- Reviewed examples
- jQuery/Sizzle as another example
- Best practice should be to keep the file separate - but the JavaScript best practice is to combine the file
Use Case Review/Examples¶
- Jack added some SPDX 2.0 examples at http://wiki.spdx.org/view/Technical_Team/Best_Practices#Examples
- Create an examples git repository
- Example with snippets using comments - mashup with Java File
- Use our own tools
- Can attach use cases
- Action - Use the Wiki to add more examples. Jack will continue to work on the specific examples.
