Hi Gregorio, That's right. Fossology comes with an empty repository. We've talked about including a repository, but it's a lot for an open source project this small to manage. So there are currently no plans to ship a repository. Perhaps someone out there in the mailing list would like to build a sharable public repository.

Are you saying that the Fossology Knowledge Base (KB) is empty (compare to the commercial tools such as Blackduck's Protex that comes with about 220K open source software packages (components))? Does that means there is not software packages to browse or compare? If so, do you plan to add open source software packages in future Fossology releases (perhaps by spidering the web just like the commercial tools do such as Blackduck)? Thanks, Gregorio <ATT00001..txt> _______________________________________________ fossology mailing list [email protected] http://fossology.org/mailman/listinfo/fossology
