napsal(a):
Migrating the License tag from Callaway to SPDX identifiers is only the "easy" part of the transition. Re-reviewing package contents and re-classifying licenses is the non-trivial part, and that definitely can't be scripted.
*nod*
1) Trivial example: how would you convert "BSD" string?
2) During past few months I have seen lots of packages that changed their license to something else and only scancode reports revealed that to them.
3) Lots of license had long discussion if they should be allowed
and how. E.g KDE uses LicenseRef-KDE-Accepted-LGPL which is valide
SPDX id, but is not allowed in Fedora and you have to use "LGPL-2.1-only OR LGPL-3.0-only"
4) And you probably missed
that every 14 days I include something like "5-10 new license
were identified and added (to SPDX list and to
fedora-license-data). For lots of months. That is huge work that
AFAIK no one before ever done. Across whole IT world.
