This interests me also.
It's my impression, from both the license-list explanation
and the actual list, that SPDX casts a broader net than
either OSI or FSF. Substantial compliance is sufficient.
I also note:
The SPDX Legal Team endeavors to explain its reasoning,
analysis, and conclusions with respect to a candidate
license as a means of developing precedent.
Compare and contrast a very recent conversation on OSI's
license-review, starting here:
