             Bug #: 1189
           Summary: Proposal for digitally signing SPDX 2.0 documents
           Product: SPDX
           Version: 2.0
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Documentation
        AssignedTo: spdx-t...@fossbazaar.org
        ReportedBy: g...@sourceauditor.com
    Classification: Unclassified


Based on the discussion at LinuxCon:
Problem statement - Today, there is no way to validate whether SPDX document(s)
which have been reviewed have been modified after the review (either the file
described by the SPDX document(s) or the metadata in the SPDX document(s)).

Proposal to have a documented best practice for creating a separate file
outside of the SPDX documents being reviewed. This document would contain the
file names and sha1 checksums for all SPDX documents which have been reviewed
(NOTE: This should include any externally referenced SPDX documents). 
Additional reviewer comments/annotations would also be included in this
separate file.  The resultant file could be digitally signed.
