Two weeks ago we had:

* 22882 spec files in Fedora

* 29366 license tags in all spec files

* 19784 tags have not been converted to SPDX yet (huray, we are under 20k)

* 7912 tags can be trivially converted using `license-fedora2spdx`


Today we have:

* 22918 spec files in Fedora

* 29406 license tags in all spec files

* 19348 tags have not been converted to SPDX yet

* 7521 tags can be trivially converted using `license-fedora2spdx`

* Progress: 34% ░░░███████ 100%

ELN subset:

* 2159 out of 4688 packages has been converted

The list of packages needed to be converted is again here:

List by package maintainers is here

   https://pagure.io/copr/license-validate/blob/main/f/packages-without-spdx-final-maintainers.txt

New version of fedora-license-data and license-validate has been released.

Legal docs and especially

  https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/legal/allowed-licenses/

was updated too.

I updated the progress in this spreadsheet:

   https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1QVMEzXWML-6_Mrlln02axFAaRKCQ8zE807rpCjus-8s/edit?usp=sharing

You converted about 500 license tags in 14 days.

New projection when we will be finished is 2024-06-05. 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 email to me is fine. I already put there some packages that has been reported in past.

Tip of the day:

There is great tool to audit a package - FOSSology. And Oregon State University runs a free instance https://fossology.osuosl.org/repo/ (login: fossy, password: fossy).

It is maintained for free, but every night the content is wiped away.


Why Easter? Well, because we have Easter now :) But I will add one fun fact. Here in Czechia we have folk custom consisting in whipping women by men using a rod or braided wicker also called pomlázka, performed on Easter Monday.
