Special Presentation this month by Matthew Crawford from Arm:

Title

A new era for SPDX at Arm, are we ready for change?

Let me walk you through the journey of open source software compliance at Arm, from spreadsheets of doom to a platform that captures OSS approvals and produces SPDX files. There were numerous hurdles along the journey but with the help of the internal and external community (including members of this group) we have achieved something that is helpful for Arm and its partners.
