Hello everyone.  First time poster here, so I hope this topic is considered
appropriate.

My favorite open source project is Julia (https://julialang.org).  It's
build process pulls in a lot of code from many other repositories.  I
thought that the project would benefit from having an SPDX document
describing all these packages, streamlining the review and approval process
at organizations that want to use Julia.

I've put together a pull request that adds an SPDX document to the
repository. At this point it contains only a few packages to demonstrate
what it looks like and will be filled in over time. If anyone on this list
would like to provide feedback that would be appreciated.

On a related question since I see that SPDX just became an ISO standard.
Does that mean that version 2.2.1 (and 3.0) of the specification will not
be available for free at spdx.dev?  Will the spdx-spec repository on Github
remain available so that open source developers can access the current
specification?  If all developers had to pay $200, that would be a
significant barrier to adoption in the OSS world.

Thank you in advance for any feedback provided.
