Objectives
The Free Software Directory SPDX Group attempts to keep the SPDX-FSF License Metadata API in synchronization with upstream development of the SPDX while removing all non-free licenses.
We're using the data to form the following applications:
- Create license pages that we link to.
- Create license lists.
- The SPDX identifiers on this page.
- The License/version drop-down list for software entries (example).
