This is great news, very happy to see it and kudos to everyone involved.

People may also be interested to know that we just merged SPDX SBOM generation
into OpenEmbedded-Core, just before our feature freeze for our October release
(3.4).

This means that Yocto Project will have SPDX and hence ISO compliant SBOM
generation out the box from then and hence on our next LTS planned for April.
