Hot news:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/legal/allowed-licenses/ contains usage column for licenses that are allowed for something (documentation, firmware...)
Automated migration of "trivial" conversions have started (see other threads in this mailing list).
Two weeks ago we had:
23849spec files in Fedora
30493license tags in all spec files
11026 tags have not been converted to SPDX yet
5004 tags can be trivially converted using `license-fedora2spdx`
Progress: 63,84% ░░░░░░████ 100%
ELN subset:
100 out of 2395 packages are not converted yet (progress 95.82%)
Today we have:
* 23901spec files in Fedora
* 30551license tags in all spec files
* 10964 tags have not been converted to SPDX yet
* 4964 tags can be trivially converted using `license-fedora2spdx`
* Progress: 64,11% ░░░░░░████ 100%
ELN subset:
100 out of 2397 packages are not converted yet (progress 95.83%)

New version of fedora-license-data has been released. With: 1 new license (plus two public domain declarations). 14 licenses are waiting to be review by SPDX.org (and then to be added to fedora-license-data) https://gitlab.com/fedora/legal/fedora-license-data/-/issues/?label_name%5B%...
Legal docs and especially
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/legal/allowed-licenses/
was updated too.

New projection when we will be finished is 2025-04-01 (+20 days from last report). Pure linear approximation.
If your package does not have neither git-log entry nor spec-changelog entry mentioning SPDX and you know your license tag matches SPDX formula, you can put your package on ignore list

Either pull-request or direct email to me is fine.
Why Human Space Flight edition? On today's date at 1961 Yuri Gagarin flew to the space in Vostok 1. Since 1963 this day is celebrated as International Day of Human Space Flight. Also on this day at 1981 the first Space Shuttle (Columbia) was lunched.
