Alcatel-Lucent is using the SPDX standard internally and we have aligned all our internal documents on FOSS (including trainings) and our Databases on the license taxonomy of SPDX. So I guess you can mention our name for license taxonomy compliance.

A small comment on the taxonomy. We have a governance process in place since 10 years and I have now to explain to people (already trained as experts, that's around 250+ people) that what we were calling old BSD or BSD1 is now BSD4-clause and new BSD or BSD2 is now BSD3-clause. That's sometimes a bit confusing 8-). Even me I am a bit confused sometimes. So today for BSD, in document and trainings we keep the 3 way of calling the licenses I would like to point out that there is a big issue with the SPDX standard. For a given FOSS there is a top level license And there is a file level license There is no intermediate level In fact there are 3 levels for open sources Top level license of the FOSS Dependencies (FOSS which are included with the top level FOSS) File level license (not use in practice by any of our suppliers).
