Hi,

What about using Hyperledger on SPDX output as a way to validate the supply
chain? My vision is that each member in the supply chain would sign the
resulting SPDX document in a Hyperledger thereby creating an immutable
record of a large, complex software project as it moves through the supply
chain to delivery. These seems to be one of Hyperledger's use cases: "The
 blockchain platform must provide a means to allow every participant on a
supply chain network to input and track sourcing of raw materials, record
parts manufacturing telemetry, track provenance of goods through shipping,
and maintain immutable records of all aspects of the production and storage
of a finished good through to sale and afterwards. In addition to employing
both the Business contracts and Asset depository patterns described
previously, this case emphasizes the need to provide deep searchability,
backwards in time through many transaction layers. This requirement is at
the core of establishing provenance for any manufactured good that is built
from other component goods."

This would improve the integrity of the SPDX data and the usefulness of
SPDX in general. Hyperledger is a project at the Linux Foundation like SPDX.

Regards,

Jeremiah
