Welcome Vaibhav and thank you for considering SPDX for the GSOC 2017! Here is a gist of what this validation tool could be: 1. input would be either one of a full SPDX document as tag/values or RDF or a simple license expression 2. the output would be a list of SPDX errors, warnings, info and recommendation and where they occurred exactly in the document or license expression in a visually easy way to support review. Tech-wise, I think we are open: I would personally favor using the Python libraries. UX-wise this should be available as a web UI and a REST API. I hope this helps. -- Cordially Philippe Ombredanne _______________________________________________ Spdx-tech mailing list [email protected] https://lists.spdx.org/mailman/listinfo/spdx-tech
