Hello, In the SPDX page on the English Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_Package_Data_Exchange
You can read the following: Deprecated syntax[edit<https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Software_Package_Data_Exchange&action=edit§ion=3>] Starting version 2.0, it is no longer valid to use the + operator in a license identifier.[10]<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_Package_Data_Exchange#cite_note-10> By removing this syntax, it left an undefined state for licenses accepting the current version and those after it, such as the GPL.[11]<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_Package_Data_Exchange#cite_note-11> It was valid to use GPL-3.0-or-later, but it wasn't explicitly written in the specifications. This was fixed later with version 2.2.[12]<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_Package_Data_Exchange#cite_note-12> From my reading of the current SPDX 2.2, I consider this is wrong. It is only identifiers like GPL-2.0+ that are deprecated, but the “+” operator can still be applied to licences. Can you please confirm so that I can update the Wikipedia page?
