Instead I could imagine something like a second level non-authoritative community-curated site that inventories any licenses could work out. And it could be the funnel for the most prominent licenses to make it to the SPDX list. I sincerely doubt that SPDX contributors would have the time and the stamina to take on the job on maintaining a curated list like the current SPDX list for every license that ever shows up. -- Philippe Ombredanne +1 650 799 0949 | [email protected] DejaCode Enterprise at http://www.dejacode.com nexB Inc. at http://www.nexb.com _______________________________________________ Spdx-tech mailing list [email protected] https://lists.spdx.org/mailman/listinfo/spdx-tech
