License XML

  • Gary will follow up with Jilayne and Paul to schedule a joint meeting
  • Should the scope of license XML be more general than just listed licenses?
    • Need to create some kind of namespace to make the ID’s unique
    • Will discuss on the joint call

  • Continue with the XML license definitions
  • Notices file – proposal to update the standard to help automate the generation of notice files from an SPDX document
