Hi Steve,
How about tools-golang as a name? This would be consistent with the current naming conventions for the SPDX repos. We could rename tools-go to ATTIC-tools-go so there isn’t any confusion.

Since it's a rewrite rather than an update of the existing tools, I'd suggest that we may want to leave the existing tools-go repo in place (and mark it as deprecated), in case other projects are making use of them. Rather than just replacing the existing repo with the new one. My new version is currently at https://github.com/swinslow/spdx-go; perhaps we can use "spdx-go" for the name of the new repo also? Very glad to have any and all input from other Golang users on this list, regarding any changes or improvements for these tools =) I updated the GSoC wiki page section on the Golang tools, but can revise it further if we do go ahead and bring in the new tools.

A few thoughts: * For the project "Update Parser Libraries to SPDX 2.1 for Go", I've recently started a replacement Golang library which handles version 2.1 of the spec, and includes near-full test coverage and some other features. It's currently at https://github.com/swinslow/spdx-go -- there's plenty of opportunities for this to be improved. Most notably it's only handling tag-value files at present, so RDF import/export has yet to be added. But I'd be interested in others' thoughts if this might be a good baseline for an updated version of the official Golang tools, and for a summer student to work on. I'd be happy to volunteer as a mentor for this. [G.O.] Why don’t you update the definition of this project to be to support multiple formats including RDF and perhaps the XML, JSON and YAML formats we’re discussing. Should we go ahead and merge your version into the official SPDX repo? I I just invited you to the repo which should provide write access. * For the project "SPDX Specification in MarkDown", I think this is basically done, isn't it? I'm not sure if it was part of GSoC or not, but I think the move from Google Docs to GitHub + MarkDown is complete. (Or if it isn't, then I've been looking in the wrong place.) =) [G.O.] I’ll check with Kate and Thomas on this one. I think there is more work to be done, but it may not be enough for a project. * I'd also be happy to be a mentor if there are any students interested in the "SPDX Spec Views for legal counsels and developers" project. [G.O.] Great! Go ahead and add yourself as a mentor. I'll give some thought to any other tooling ideas that come to mind for possible GSoC projects.

If you are interested in being a mentor this year, please let me know which project ideas you would be interested in mentoring. We also need to update our list of project ideas. I removed the projects from last year which were completed. Here is the updated ideas page: https://wiki.spdx.org/view/GSOC/GSOC_ProjectIdeas We can definitely use more ideas! If you would like to add a project idea, feel free to add to the ideas wiki or reply to this distribution list with a proposal.
