As the mentioned patent clause is there for 10+ years I might just believe it went through Fedora Legal, as it is a much older legal related task than I am co-maintainer of the openexr itself.
But I am fine with having conversation with the Legal team about the proper SPDX license clause that should be used for this project.

I note that there is a patent clause which
allows DreamWorks to revoke the patent
grants under some conditions for the
lossy compression.
Has Fedora Legal reviewed the revocable
patent license language, and does there
need to be a (new) SPDX license to include
that patent grant (BSD-3-Clause-Patent?)
