After almost two years of work involving over twenty different organization, the SPDX Workgroup has released SPDX 1.0. The SPDX specification will help companies and communities better communicate and share information about free and open source licenses, thereby streamlining and improving compliance. Read our announcement and statements of support.
As we move forward, the SPDX workgroup will be working with companies and communities to adopt SPDX in their compliance efforts, and continuing to improve and enhance the specification.
Thank you to everyone who has been involved in helping to bring SPDX 1.0 to fruition. Special thanks to my fellow team leaders, Phil Odence, Kate Stewart and Esteban Rockett for their extraordinary efforts as well as Karen Copenhaver for her sage advice.
