Re: End Of Life Tag in spdx #spdx
Kate and Sandeep,
Our customers are also interested in this information. There are two concepts to consider: Commercial Status: <enumeration value="Available"></enumeration> <enumeration value="Retired"></enumeration> <enumeration value="EOL"></enumeration> <enumeration value="BetaTest"></enumeration> <enumeration value="Pilot"></enumeration> <enumeration value="Abandoned"></enumeration>
Support Status: <enumeration value="Supported"></enumeration> <enumeration value="Unsupported"></enumeration> <enumeration value="Community"></enumeration>
Both are described in the open-source Vendor Response File (VRF) XML schema available here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rjb4standards/REA-Products/master/SAGVendorSchema.xsd
Thanks,

Hi Sandeep,
There is a pull request expected shortly from the Usage profile team, to add this specific field to 2.3. When it comes in, please feel free to review and make sure it's going to suffice for your needs.
For now, with 2.2 documents, suggest you use the Package Comment field (https://spdx.github.io/spdx-spec/package-information/#720-package-comment-field) and standardize on a tag (like EndOfSupport: ) and the date.
Will that work for now?
Thanks,
