Subject: Rescheduling important SPDX General Meeting

The Feb 5 meeting will be postponed 1 week to Thurs. Feb 12. (outside US, note 
that US will be on daylight savings time next week so the call will be an hour 
off of normal for you).

The main thrust of the call will be to answer questions about the SPDX 2.0 
Spec. We’ll do a very compressed version of the team updates and spend most of 
the time discussing questions about the new spec and the license list (which 
has also gone through significant change).

IMPORTANT: See the instructions below the meeting agenda and the attached copy 
of the spec, and please take time to review the spec in advance of the meeting.

Lastly, unfortunately, I have a conflict, so Kate will chair.

Best,
Phil

Greetings SPDX Community,

We are pleased to announce that the penultimate version of the SPDX 2.0 
Specification and the new  SPDX License List are ready for community review.  
With 2.0 there have been great strides forwards in the expressiveness of an 
SPDX document through relationships and the license expression syntax.

There will be a general question and answer session on these at the March 12th 
General Meeting.   Any comments regarding the material below should be 
submitted no later than March 23rd as directed below. We are hoping to finalize 
the material and officially release it at the April 2nd General Meeting. This 
should allow you plenty of time to do a thorough review.
