This should be pretty straight-forward to produce. It would require an extra step during release, but I agree it would be beneficial.
There are a couple alternatives to consider: - Create a separate git repository that contains the output JSON, RDF and template formats (all 3 output forms produced by the tools) tagged by release - Add a build directory to the existing spdx/license-list repo that would contain all of the output files The latter would be an easy change - I would just need to remove a git exclude of the build directory. It would also keep all of the license artifacts together in the same repo which may make it easier to maintain. The only thing I don't like about the build directory is it feels like we are including compiled artifacts in a source repository. Perhaps we should rename the directory from build to something else? Let me know your thoughts.
