             Bug #: 1177
           Summary: Mandatory license name in extracted license info may
                    cause compatibility issues
           Product: SPDX
           Version: 1.2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Spec
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified


SPDX 1.0 does not contain a LicenseName in the spec.  In SPDX versions 1.1 and
1.2 the license name is mandatory.  Any SPDX 1.0 document would be invalid and
incompatible by this definition.

The spdx.org/rdf/terms page shows this property as optional, inconsistent with
the document.

The tools currently do not check for the required field (consistent with the
rdf/terms but inconsistent with the document).

Note: This is showed up in the 1.1 version of the spec, we must have missed it
in the reviews for consistency.
