Meeting 12

(July 12th, 2022)

GSoC 2022 Project Discussions - REUSE

Attendees

Discussions/Updates

  • Implemented REUSE standard in more files.
    • Current REUSE status - when running reuse lint, the result is as follows:
      Files with copyright information: 4322 / 4364
      Files with license information: 4284 / 4364
  • In the issue I raised in fsfe/reuse-tool, I received two following suggestions/solutions:
    • Put a .license file next to your testdata files. The contents of the testdata files will be ignored, and the contents of the .license file will be used instead.
    • Put REUSE-IgnoreStart and REUSE-IgnoreEnd in your testdata files. Documentation Link.
  • Discussed both solutions with mentors and decided to use the second solution i.e. REUSE-IgnoreStart and REUSE-IgnoreEnd in your testdata files.
  • Mentors provided guidance on how to correctly identify SPDX-FileCopyrightText.
  • Few doubts cleared regarding the comment formatting of the multiple files.
