Hi Gary,

thanks a lot.
Can you please give me an example with a valid syntax in tag value, if possible?

Ciao
Oliver

subdirectories

Hi Oliver,

In SPDX, you can use the SPDX Package to represent a subdirectory of files 
within a larger package.

In your scenario, one approach would be to create an SPDX package - if it 
doesn't have a logical name, you could call it something like "C licensed 
files" with a declared license of C.  Then use the "contains" relationship from 
the parent package to the subdirectory.

Let me know if you need more context / description.

Best,
Gary

Subject: [spdx-tech] easy and simple way to express licenses in subdirectories

Dear Folks,

I have a simple question and I am wondering whether you can help me.
Sometimes you find in a package (lets assume the declared license is A) in some 
subdirectory (lets assume SUB-DIR-X) a README file with the following wording: 
"the files in this directory are licensed under license C", but none of the 
files in this directory contain any license information and do not contain any 
reference to the README file in this directory.

Is there an easy and simple way to express this in spdx 2.3 and in spdx 3.0 
(but 2.3 is currently more important)

Thank you very much

Ciao
Oliver
