SPDX DocFest - Sept 16, 2021 - Call for Participation
Gary O'Neall
As a follow-up to this morning SPDX general meeting, below is the information on the upcoming SPDX DocFest:
The SPDX project will be hosting an initial working "DocFest" to bring together the producers of SPDX documents and walk through the differences between tools for the same artifacts. Artifacts included in the DocFest will include sources, build assembly, containers, and executable images that can be analyzed.

Thursday's SPDX General Meeting/ Google Summer of Code Presentations
Phil Odence
This week’s meeting with feature two GSoC presentations. Note I have a conflict so Gary will host.
PLEASE: When you sign in, please include your name and company (or put them in the chat) to facilitate logging attendance. With relatively heavy attendance these days is the trickiest bit of running the meeting.
Presentations
New License Matching Library During my presentation, I will show a demo of a new license matching library, followed by a short talk on implementation summary. In the latter part, I would like to talk about the difficulties and issues I faced.Since my final goal is to deliver something we can call a reference implementation of SPDX license matching, I want to hear your feedback and improve the library from them! I am Mikihito Matsuura (@m1kit), a master course student at the University of Tokyo. I was looking for an interesting GSoC project this March. During project hunting, I saw an open-source organization looking for a good license matching library. Later I realized SPDX is also recruiting a GSoC student and contacted people here a few days before the deadline. I'm excited to be able to work with this community as a part of GSoC despite the late contact!
Validate and Generate multiple representations of specifications This project is related to the tooling of SPDX specification, specification which is being collaboratively produced. The aim of this project is to build a program that can be used to validate and convert Structured
input to the pretty markdowns for documentation purposes and also generate Specification Representation. The end goal of this project is to make it run as Github action for the SPDX specification. This is my second time participating in GSoC and working under open-source organization is always filled with a lot of learning.
GENERAL MEETING

Thanks for reaching to the SPDX project! As this has purely to do with licenses, it may be better addressed to the legal working group at spdx-legal@....

Subject: [spdx] Question on two MIT-derivatives Hi SPDX, I was refreshing the license info on a Debian package and found two licenses that seemed to be MIT-variants that I wasn't sure about. The reason I looked at it was mostly technical as the current way to identify them was triggering a lintian warning, but as I said I wondered what would be correct. I was not finding the two derivatives in your license list at [1] nor as an exception in [2]. There are already a bunch of MIT-* identifiers, but none matched the two that I had. So I had no "official identifiers" to use and just came up with two for now. I changed the identifiers like - MIT(*) -> MIT-ibm - MIT(**) -> MIT-no-ad and that satisfies Lintian at least. The full text of those can be found at [3][4]. I'm full of questions: - having a look at them, would you think they should be added to your list and get assigned official identifiers? - Are these even licenses on their own that deserve an ID? - Would it need the project or License owner to do such a request? - I'm neither of that and just looked at it by accident - If needed I'd be ok to file an issue as outlined in [5] and discuss, but I'm not sure I could do much more on it.

Re: [spdx-tech] Should SPDX endorse SCA tools?
Kate Stewart
We've got a lot of historical cruft in our SPDX repo as well. Coming up with some criteria for inclusion & removal is overdue. After we settle the 3.0 template issue, you up for dedicating part of a call to sketch out the repository inclusion criteria? Then we'll do an assessment/clean up pass. Thanks, Kate

Re: SPDX June General Meeting Minutes
Steve Winslow
Hi Philippe, Thanks for your comments and thoughts on this. I know this was a couple of weeks ago, but I had a few thoughts I wanted to share. You're right that the Community Specification License is not an OSI-approved license, nor on the SPDX License List (though I'm expecting to submit it to the License List shortly). Whether or not SPDX adopts it for our project, I'm aware that several other collaborative specifications-development efforts are using or evaluating it. E.g., FINOS (the Fintech Open Source Foundation) adopted it in April for all their new spec development efforts going forward, and I understand that other projects are currently considering it. So I don't think that proliferation is likely to be a concern here, as it is seeing uptake in any case. I wouldn't expect OSI to consider or approve it for OSI approval, because it isn't a software license. It's particularly tailored to the unique issues around specifications. I'm not an author of the Community Specification License, but I think that it brings several advantages, primarily in the area of patent licenses. For development of specifications, it's relevant to have not just copyright but also patent licenses. And, differently from software, for specifications the patent license that matters is one that covers implementations developed in accordance with the spec. Patent licenses in open source software licenses are naturally tied to that particular piece of software; but for specs, it would be important to have it extend to downstream implementations of the spec. That's why just switching to a FOSS software license with explicit patent commitments like Apache-2.0 wouldn't address this (whether with or without a DCO sign-off). The Community Specification License includes an explicit patent license commitment for implementations of the spec. And, that patent license grant is for the spec as a whole -- not just what the contributor themself contributes. I won't get into all the specifics here, but I think this broad deactivation of patents among contributors within the spec's defined scope is a big benefit. It gives implementors of the spec greater comfort that they won't be subject to contributors' patent claims within that scope. I'm putting together more detailed thoughts for the proposal that was described on the General Meeting, and expecting to share those with the community shortly. So I'll leave it there for now, but just wanted to share these thoughts as a preview. More to come soon. Best, Steve

The SPDX chatroom is now on Libera.Chat; please feel free to join!
Dear all,
I bring good news: with the approval of the Libera.Chat staff, the #spdx IRC channel is now registered! This should be a great place to help introduce newcomers to the SPDX project, as well as to discuss Software Bill of Materials-related topics with existing adopters and working group members. Philippe Ombredanne (pombreda) and I (seabass) are 'operators' of the channel, thus able to change its settings if this is required. If you are already familiar with IRC and have a client installed, you can just join #spdx on irc.libera.chat. As another option, you can join with Libera.Chat's web interface (no need to enter a password) at: https://web.libera.chat/#spdx Finally, you can join via your Matrix account. Our channel's Matrix address is: #spdx:libera.chat Of the three options above, only Matrix allows you to see chat history from when you aren't connected, so this may be the best way to join if you are already used to other instant messaging apps. However, you do need to sign up for an account on a 'homeserver' - here's the flagship homeserver: https://app.element.io/#/register Please let me know if there's any trouble in joining the channel with any of the methods above; I'll do my best to help you get connected :) Looking forward to chatting with you on #spdx! Best wishes, Sebastian Crane

Re: SPDX June General Meeting Minutes
Philippe Ombredanne
Dear Phil:
Thank you for these minutes! I want to comment on the spec license topic.

This would address user concerns about the possibility that an SPDX contributor seeking to enforce patents that they might hold that cover the spec.The governance updates make change, but I cannot fathom the benefits of switching the spec license to a reasonably new, unproven and uncommon license that is neither OSI-approved, nor on the SPDX license list and not even for consideration there at this stage. If you have patents concerns, I would rather see these addressed by a simple DCO signoff and an update of the project contribution policies. This would put the omen to comply on contributors rather than putting the burden on the users to have to deal with yet another license. Additionally, it does not feel right if SPDX contributes to license proliferation. -- Cordially Philippe Ombredanne +1 650 799 0949 | pombredanne@...

SPDX Governance Review - Phil[edit]· Background: About 8 years ago, we put in place a governance structure for SPDX. It was a good effort at the time and has served us, but it’s never really been stressed. Factors are in play today that suggest the need for a legally tighter structure: · OMG CISQ 3T joining SPDX · ISO direction · Executive Order · Working with other standards, i.e. SWID and CycloneDX · The Linux Foundation has a pre-packaged governance solution for standards bodies, call the Joint Development Foundation, a “consortium in a box,” as they refer to it. It’s a free, fast way to set up a highly configurable legal entity and structure designed for specification development. With support LF attorneys who have been involved in a number of such projects for the LF, the Core Team is exploring this option and it looks like it will suit our needs. · There are many ways to configure, and we are going down the path of the simplest possible configuration. Essentially, we can tailor the documents so as to continue to operate as we have. The most significant change would be to change the license for the spec to the Community Specification License. This is a license purpose built for specifications. Like the existing CC license, it grants a broad copyright license to the spec itself. Additionally, requires contributors to grant licenses to any patents that might cover implementations of the spec. This would address user concerns about the possibility that an SPDX contributor seeking to enforce patents that they might hold that cover the spec. · This is really to give you a heads up of something coming in the future. The current governance mechanism defines a mechanism and timetable for such a change that involves a formal announcement and a general meeting to try to reach consensus. That clock is not starting now; just want you to be aware that it’s coming. Tech Team Report - Kate/Gary/Others[edit]

Re: SBOM's going mainstream - Biden Cybersecurity EO
Phil Odence
I’m sure most of you are aware of the executive order by now. The draws attention to SPDX and the LF is keen to show the project in its best light. As such we are adding a page to the website to display logos of companies whose employees participate. Consider this a heads up; we’d love to get your company’s logo up. Instructions will be forthcoming on how to submit.

Re: SBOM's going mainstream - Biden Cybersecurity EO
Dear all,
During today's SPDX Technical Team meeting, the US Government's recent Executive Order was a major point of discussion! Kate Stewart shared a link to a blog post from the Linux Foundation regarding the news: https://linuxfoundation.org/en/blog/how-lf-communities-enable-security-measures-required-by-the-us-executive-order-on-cybersecurity/ There is lots of useful background information and explanation in the article which I imagine would be of interest to members of this list. Best wishes, Sebastian
