Daniel, Thanks to you and Trevor for contributing. I agree with Guillaume. This is great discussion for the Legal Team. Let's remove the general list from the thread. (also, please note that the fossbazaar list you originally used is out of date) Phil

I guess you will push some of your recommendation in the Tech/Legal WG to upgrade http://spdx.org/wiki/spdx-license-list-match- guidelines Season's greatings.

One of them, Trevor Maryka (who I think is also subscribed to this list) took on the problem of trying to determine how 'variable' are the BSD and the MITs and what this means for their standardization under SPDX. he makes a set of recommendations to SPDX (see section 5). I am attaching his paper. It is, in my opinion, very good news for SPDX. -- Daniel M. German "Beauty is the first test; there is no permanent place in the world for ugly G. H.
