Re: Funding for Hosting On-Line SPDX Tools
It would be great. How about Third Monday August at 5pm Pacific? We can do one to two slots on CommunityBridge stuff, each up to 15 minutes + questions.

Can you help pull it together? I would love to showcase the practical stuff happening. Shane

Re: Funding for Hosting On-Line SPDX Tools

Hi Shane,
There are a couple of community bridge related topics we could cover.
For the SPDX online tools, I’m planning on presenting to the OpenChain tools workgroup in Sept.
We could also present as part of a webinar.
Another interesting topic would be the work the interns and GSoC students are doing for the tools more generally.
We have a number of mentors and students involved – perhaps some of the mentors would be interested in jointly presenting?

Re: Funding for Hosting On-Line SPDX Tools

I actually tried to implement this in a serverless environment (it was my first choice), but there is persistent state required for some of the components. As Alexios points out – a good future project.
The PostgreSQL is necessary as a DB backend. It also uses Redis – but this doesn’t seem to add too much complexity. We have some projects underway to reduce the dependency on Java – it would be great to make this all python sometime in the future.
BTW – Anyone interested in reviewing and contributing can review the issues listed here: https://github.com/spdx/spdx-online-tools/issues/199

Rewriting this to a simpler setup is definitely a valid idea for a future Community Bridge / GSoC project. 😉

Is the complexity really needed? Can it be moved to a serverless solution? E.g. GitHub pages for the static content + lambdas for backend?

Hi Mark,
Yes – SPDX is using AWS for the hosting (see https://github.com/spdx/spdx-online-tools/issues/194 for a discussion on the hosting options).
The deployment is a bit complex (Java/Python/Django/PostgreSQL).
Any credits/help is appreciated.
I registered the account that is hosting the site – so feel free to contact me for additional details.

Is SPDX using AWS for any hosting? I can probably get gratis AWS credits provided to SPDX.
And since SPDX is using Github, then Github pages can be used to host HTML/CSS/JS

The SPDX Work Group needs your help to host on-line tools.
As you may know, SPDX runs on shoestring with support from the Linux Foundation but no corporate contributions. There are benefits to the independence this arrangement, but it means we rely on individual contributions to cover modest expenses we do take on. One of those regular expenses is for cloud services to host our wonderful set of on-line tools.
We spend $1200/year on hosting. We’d like to line up enough funding to backfill for this year and to build a balance of “money in the bank” to ensure continuity next year. So the goal is $2400 total. As of this writing we are approaching half way there.
Please make a contribution of any size through the Linux Foundation CommunityBridge at: https://funding.communitybridge.org/projects/f0e320d6-9c86-4656-ad4d-97842f25b124

Quick search shows: - both version were on the list when we moved to the XML format in 2016 - email archive https://lists.spdx.org/g/Spdx-legal/topic/22080449#817 - shows discussion for zip in Feb 2014, added for v1.20 of the license list (also see: https://wiki.spdx.org/view/Legal_Team/License_List/Licenses_Under_Consideration#Licenses_Under_Consideration and https://wiki.spdx.org/view/Legal_Team/Minutes/2014-02-20 However, I’m not clear on if that was both versions or what… a ha! search on wiki meeting minutes then found this: https://wiki.spdx.org/view/Legal_Team/Minutes/2014-06-26 regarding diff b/w 1.0..5 and 1.0.6 we should check 1.0.7 and 8 against matching guidelines. that’s all I have for now, it’s late. higher power, eh? ;) Cheers, Jilayne PS given this quick trip back in time at our process flow for new licenses back then… OMG, LOOK HOW FAR WE’VE COME!!!!

SPDX license identifier for bzip2 are strange, why?
Hi!
I’ve started looking at the license and the SPDX identifiers on the “bzip2” project.
The license looks like a unsurprising BSD variant, but weirdly it’s been getting a versioned license ID with each release version. The difference between two version seems to be entirely just the data and the software version.
Can this instead just match against one of the BSD variant templates?
Why does bzip2 get so finely versioned licensed identifiers? Do we plan on created a new license identifier when bzip2 releases a version 1.0.9?

Hi Mark,
iliana suggested I run this by you, as a higher power in the SPDX org.
I’m looking to package bzip2 for Bottlerocket. It has an odd license that Fedora dubs “BSD” but which SPDX has a versioned license for: https://spdx.org/licenses/bzip2-1.0.5.html https://spdx.org/licenses/bzip2-1.0.6.html
The upstream author seems to revise the license with each new version, though 1.0.7 and 1.0.8 are close except for the date and version: https://sourceware.org/git/?p=bzip2.git;a=blob;f=LICENSE;hb=bzip2-1.0.7 https://sourceware.org/git/?p=bzip2.git;a=blob;f=LICENSE;hb=bzip2-1.0.8
iliana recommended that I use the “bzip2-1.0.6” identifier for now.
Perhaps the author could be persuaded to tweak the license so that it doesn’t need a new SPDX identifier for every release? Maybe it doesn’t matter and 1.0.6 is close enough until they change the text in a significant way again?
Thanks, Ben
