SPDX RDF vocabulary request for comments

From: Peter Williams <pezra@barelyenough.org> · Date: Wed, 29 Jun 2011 07:47:50 -0600

The SPDX[1] group is working on creating a vocabulary for describing
software packages.  SPDX provides ways to express manifest, ownership,
provenance and rights information for software packages as a whole,
and for the file contained in the package.

The spec is close to being finalized.  Before we reach that point we
are seeking feed back from the larger community.  The current draft of
the RDF vocabulary description is at <http://spdx.org/rdf/terms>.  The
current draft of the full specification -- which also includes some
specialized serializations of the same abstract model -- is available
at <http://spdx.org/spec/current>.

Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  It would
probably be best to address comments to the SPDX technical team
mailing list, <spdx-tech@fossbazaar.org>, or to file a bug[2].  Thanks
in advance for your time and effort.
