- 160 issues in the Fedora-license-data, which has resulted in 34 new license/TOML files being added to the data, and 18 more ready to be added https://gitlab.com/fedora/legal/fedora-license-data/-/issues/?sort=created_date&state=opened&label_name%5B%5D=TOML%20file%3A%3Aneeded&first_page_size=100
- As of the SPDX License List v3.20 release this past week, 40 new licenses have been added to the SPDX License List https://github.com/spdx/license-list-XML/releases/tag/v3.20
The vast majority of these have been as a result of Fedora's new policy (and most of those have been submitted by Richard)
- We continue to improve the documentation for guidance on updating existing packages
Related to process, a couple reminders:
Please review the process description for license review https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/legal/license-review-process/ and make sure you see the process through to the end!
Issue titles in Gitlab: The License Review template does not add a Title - if you have a current issue in the Fedora License Data and could update the title to "License Review: <name of license>" that would be immensely helpful. If you end up submitting the license to SPDX, ensuring the name of the license in the issue is consistent in both repos would also be really helpful.
Engage with the SPDX-legal community: if your license requires submission there, helping see that process through. (It is not scalable for Richard to submit most of the licenses to SPDX and me to create the files for those licenses... :)
We have been implementing labels in the Fedora License Data repo to help indicate what is needed next. I think I've caught up on noting in the corresponding the ones that have been dealt with on the SPDX side, but please check your issues and tag me if I've missed something.
Don't forget the last step: create a MR to add the TOML file to the Fedora-license-data!
Let us know if you have any questions or suggestions for improvements. We've had two "office hours" so far with no attendees, but happy to schedule a few more for open discussion or questions!
Thanks,
Jilayne
