Next Release Project¶
- see https://github.com/tsteenbe/spdx-spec
- Discussion on optional fields
- Agree to make snippet byte range optional
- PackageLicenseDeclared
- Semantics different from other fields
- VerificationCode
- Discussed public repositories having a checksum already
^^^ Discussed whether required since file checksums are in the SPDX document – although there is also a proposal to not include all files in the SPDX document
-
- Tabled the discussion for now
-
- Document namespace – needed for external document references.
- Some confusion on how to apply – seems arbitrary
- Only requirement is that it is unique
- Agree to update the documentation and add best practices to describe this field more clearly
- Document name
- Required for the RDF model
- Could provide some best practices and/or better documentation
- Proposal to have a default of “Document” since we have a namespace
