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?

Speaking of which, would someone be willing to do 10~15 minutes on ComminityBridge for a forthcoming OpenChain webinar?

The deployment is a bit complex (Java/Python/Django/PostgreSQL).

Is the complexity really needed?

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

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

Hi Shane-san,

May I ask you to provide suggestion to make proposal for SPDX community?

We Lic. Inf. Exch. SWG member discussed about “Usage Profile” for SPDX 3.0 reference as another extensions of SPDX Lite.
And we need to describe information about “Product” name into SPDX file.

Do you suggest any other better wording than “Prerequisite Product” to describe “Identify the name of the target product that used as the prerequisite for license compatibility assumption.” For Tag name of SPDX file?

Regards,
Yoshiyuki Ito.

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?

Subject: SPDX license identifier for bzip2

 

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
