Overview

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

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

  • meta-demoapps/recipes-support/poppler/poppler-data_0.1.bb:LICENSE = "Adobe"

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 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)

Parsing operations
