SPDX lists moving to LF

Martin Michlmayr
 

As part of our integration with the Linux Foundation, the SPDX lists
are moving to LF infrastructure. The lists are moving from FOSSBazaar
to <http://lists.spdx.org/> which is hosted by the LF. Apart from one
minor change, you won't notice any changes though.

If you filter based on the List-Id, please note that the List-Id
will change from name.fossbazaar.org to name.lists.spdx.org. For
example,
List-Id: Software Package Data Exchange <spdx.fossbazaar.org>
will change to:
List-Id: Software Package Data Exchange <spdx.lists.spdx.org>

In the future, please use spdx@... to send email to the
list (same for spdx-tech@..., etc) but the old
spdx* at fossbazaar.org addresses will continue to work.

The mailing list information and archives at https://fossbazaar.org/mailman/listinfo
will automatically redirect to the new pages on http://lists.spdx.org/

These changes will become affective as of today at 10:00 PT (15:00 UTC).
There won't be any disruption to the operation of the lists.

If there are any questions, please let me know.

Thanks to Eric Searcy from the Linux Foundation for his help moving
the lists!

Maybe we can coordinate details on this at the Collab Summit meeting.

Kevin and Guillaume,

As you can tell, we have public transit in the Bay Area, but it is not
particularly well coordinated across systems. I suspect that the best
approach
will be some combination of public transit and car-pooling with colleagues
which
we should be able to arrange during the Linux Summit (and we hope that there
will be more people coming to the SPDX forum from out of town who have not yet
figured out the logistical challenge).

A specific suggestion is to take SF Muni / Caltrain to Mountain View or a
similar stop on the Peninsula and one of us who lives nearby could pick you up
on our way to Cisco. For time, the best approach is to take one of the
Express
trains. I am pretty sure that I could pick up some colleagues this way but I
may not have room for four.

in the Bay Area can be reached via public transit.

However, the SPDX Forum in San Jose is not practical to reach via public
transit from downtown San Francisco (two hours each way, it appears, twice
as
long as driving). We could of course rent a vehicle for that day, but that
seems a bit wasteful since it would be parked nearly all day.

I'm posting this here in hopes that someone might offer up a creative

be happy to offset the costs) that would work as well.
Philippe and me will be in the same situation
No idea up to now about the best solution.

Registration open for SPDX Forum: PLEASE REGISTER and INVITE OTHERS

Kim Weins
 

H everyone:

Registration is now open for the SPDX Forum.

We need everyone’s help to make this a success by inviting other people outside the current SPDX group who may be interested in learning more!  You have two tasks:

1. Register yourself
Go to the following address:
http://www.spdx.org/wiki/spdx-forum-managing-open-source-software-licenses-suppliers-and-customers

Click one of the Register Now links and fill out the Registration form.

2. Invite others
Send out email to others that might be interested.  Below is a text blurb that you can paste in your email.  Of course you can feel free to edit or write your own as well.

Kim

-----------
I would like to personally invite you to participate in the SPDX Forum:  Managing Open Source Licenses with Suppliers and Customers

The SPDX Forum is a one-day meeting on April 6 that will help companies learn how to streamline their open source license compliance processes.  The forum will bring together procurement, supply chain, legal and technical staff at companies that use open source technologies in their products to discuss challenges and best practices for complying with open source licenses across the software supply chain.  

We will also discuss how the SPDX(TM) (Software Package Data Exchange) standard, developed by a workgroup of the Linux Foundation, can help companies to improve and streamline compliance efforts.

Registration is free, but space is limited.  Please  http://www.spdx.org/wiki/spdx-forum-managing-open-source-software-licenses-suppliers-and-customers to register or learn more.

Also for those us that will be using Muni/BART while in the city, there are three Muni bus lines that go pretty directly between Union Square and the San Francisco Caltrain Station (web site says 20 minutes between those locations).

There is light rail in San Jose that goes right up Tasman drive by Cisco.
I'll check into whether it goes to the San Jose Caltrain station -- I assume
it does.

By the time you do the walk/train/light rail it will be a fairly lengthy
trip, although driving at that time in the morning can be pretty heavy
traffic as well.
Right... those of us not familiar with left coast rush hour think that more than an hour to get some place for a meeting is excessive :-)

You could also head down to San Jose Thursday night and stay at a hotel
closer to the location of the Forum.
Since there others in the same situation, I'm thinking Caltrain to the San Jose Caltrain Station and then a shared taxi to the Cisco campus is probably the most practical choice. Google Maps says the taxi ride should be 20 minutes or so, so that would make the whole journey somewhere around 75 minutes, which is not awful.

Yes -- it will be a bit of a ride. The Caltrain drops you off in Central
San Jose. Cisco is on the very east side of San Jose.

Take Caltrain from San Francisco, then transfer to VTA Light Rail (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VTA_light_rail ), get out at Cisco Way (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cisco_Way_%28VTA%29 ), walk.
I must be missing something obvious here. I spent a bit of time looking
at the Caltrain and VTA websites (and transit.511.org).

Caltrain from San Francisco Station to Mountain View Station takes 45
minutes on one of the morning 'express' routes. It would then take 40
minutes or so of light rail, bus and walking to get to Cisco Way.
Alternatively Caltrain can take you all the way to Tamien Station, and
then a single light rail ride will take you to Cisco way, but again the
total time is over two hours.

However, make sure you have some cash for tickets, just in case. Last year the CalTrain vending machines in San Francisco refused my Dutch creditcard (it's MasterCard, so should have worked). Luckily I had foreseen that and had backup cash.

I have just requested an invitation, as has our in-house counsel, and we're really looking forward to getting involved in the SPDX effort.

However, I noticed that the response to my invitation request said it could take up to 10 business days to be approved (or denied). Given that we need to schedule travel as soon as we can in order to minimize costs, I'm wondering if it's really going to take that long. Ten business days from today is the 22nd, which is less than two weeks before the event.

Can you approve Kevin sooner rather than later?

I have just requested an invitation, as has our in-house counsel, and we're really looking forward to getting involved in the SPDX effort.

However, I noticed that the response to my invitation request said it could take up to 10 business days to be approved (or denied). Given that we need to schedule travel as soon as we can in order to minimize costs, I'm wondering if it's really going to take that long. Ten business days from today is the 22nd, which is less than two weeks before the event.
