View source for License Infrastructure Interest Group

==Overview==

This group is for discussion of all things having to do with licenses, specifically, license wrangling, field parsing, possible SPDX implementation, etc. 

* Contact [[User:Eflangan|Eflanagan]] for more info

==SPDX==

The Software Package Data Exchange® (SPDX™) specification is a standard format for communicating the components, licenses and copyrights associated with a software package. For the common-licenses used for the Yocto Project, we should, when possible, use the SPDX generic licenses for Yocto's license wrangling. As well, we should also use the SPDX Identifier field to identify the license fields within LICENSE

* http://spdx.org/licenses/ for more info on common-license text and the Identifier field.
* http://spdx.org/ for more info on SPDX

==LICENSE Field Standard==

===Packages with known LICENSE issues===

===Naming===

All names should adhere to the textfile name of the common-license as defined in poky/meta/files/common-licenses. These file names follow the SPDX naming standard when an SPDX license file is available. If no SPDX file exists, we should:

* Attempt to get a generic license from the license provider
* Offer the generic upstream to SPDX (to be defined)

This following is a list of all liceneses currently registered with SPDX.

===Parsing operations===

The LICENSE field is parsed by converting the field to a [http://docs.python.org/library/ast.html Python Abstract Syntax Tree]. ASTs are internal to the python compiler and are used by python in the generation of python bytecode. We create, from the LICENSE field after attempting to turn it more "pythonesque", an abstract syntax tree via ast.parse. Using an AST Visitor class, we then dump the ast and visit each node of the tree. 

What this means is that, since we are using the python compiler components to parse the LICENSE field, it should be syntactically valid python.
