All, Folks may care to know that RubyGems, the package manager for Ruby code, recently merged a patch for issuing warnings about invalid SPDX license identifiers used in license arrays in package metadata files:
https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/pull/1249 Unlike npm, RubyGems does not incorporate license expressions. They do offer an analog to OR, in that the licenses array can contain multiple values. RubyGems fetches its internal list of valid IDs for validation via the new JSON endpoint on SPDX.org. This is done at build time, not on users' machines, so RubyGems' list may lag a small bit behind SPDX.org. However, the update process has been automated with a script.
