SBOMs only decribe the software bill of materials, not the binary packages created from them. And they don't just use a license tag, but
It does.

AFAIK most common ones are Build and Analyzes which describes the
binary packages.
I don't have any specific proposal. Lets just hope SPDX will justcreate a new generic Hybrid-BSD variant. I do find it somewhat disturbing Fedora contributors are asked to file issues in these external third-pary proprietary trackers.
SPDX is community-driven project. Under Linux Foundation. With all materials open and all decisions done in public.
I personally find it motivating. That we are collaborating on
open standard that is used by various distributions and
communities and not working on a NIH project.
|This example may look artificial, but I know a lot of companies that want to avoid GPL-3.0-or-later.And how does that help Fedora?
If companies find it easier to use Fedora, it will get wider
recognition and companies in exchange very often contributes back.
I think it is a pretty standard convention and easy to automate.I disagree with you. E.g. most visible is GitHub, but it does that for only limited number of licenses https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/managing-your-repositorys-settings-and-features/customizing-your-repository/licensing-a-repository#disclaimer and very often fails when COPYING include multiple licenses.Various source code repositories already do and show you the project's license based on scanning those files.
