Hi Max,

 

I noticed some of the same issues.


I just pinged William to see if he had a contact we could work directly with or 
if he had any advice since he worked at GitHub in the past.

 

I’ll let you know what I find out.

Thanks Max,

  

Yes, let's raise up feedback.   

 

I'll look and see if I can find a direct email to Justin.

 

Thanks,
Kate

Hey Kate,

Sadly I already have a found some issues which make these files non-compliant. 
E.g.

- usage of non-SPDX licenses in expressions (E.g. LGPL-3.0)
- documentDescribes points to something, which is not contained in the document
- the example I am currently looking at fails to validate with:
   Analysis exception processing SPDX file: Error parsing JSON field for ID 
SPDXRef-maven-org.owasp:dependency-check-maven-8.0.1: Empty license expression

Less problematic:
- No relations between described elements (actually no relations at all)

Maybe we should voice our feedback early.

Best
Max
