Thank you for this. Can you check the comments I made there?

Instead what I would like to see in a proposal is: - the details of which data structures and models you plan to create. And why? - a description of the processing flow(s): which would be the key parts and how the data would flow between these? - how do you see users using the tool(s)? - what would they gain from it? - which UI/UX do you have in mind? - what is your plan to package and make these installable? And this for each feature and/or tool you are considering. And I am not interested in boilerplate parts, but what is specific to your apps. As a side note, please try to avoid posting HTML or Rich text on this list. Plain text is better. -- Cordially Philippe Ombredanne _______________________________________________ Spdx-tech mailing list Spdx-tech@lists.spdx.org https://lists.spdx.org/mailman/listinfo/spdx-tech
