General

• Shaheem Azmal M MD: Addressed general updates, reviewed pull requests, and resolved issues. Focused on developing the License Database UI and backend REST API.

• Akash Sah: Completed the report generation for SPDX, handling tag values and License expressions. Currently enhancing the main license codebase, delving into the codebase, and clarifying aspects in the application report.

• Rajul Jha: Concluded work on custom keywords functionality, which aids in directing scanner operations to specified locations and keys as requested by the user. Continued development on the differential scan design, utilizing the GitHub API and GitLab API to implement distinct tagging strategies discussed in the previous meeting, which assist in distinguishing scan types.

• Gaurav Mishra: Discussed the architecture of differential scanning, which requires two inputs per your suggestions. Several methods were considered, inspired by Git's differential scanning mechanisms in pull requests and merging capabilities. Identified four modes of execution:

  1. Based on Pull Request
  2. Scanning of a repo
  3. User-defined Tags
  4. Current release vs. Pre-release

• Abhishek Kumar: Spent the past week working on the validation of JSON Schema. Successfully generated a tag value report.

• Shaheem Azmal M MD: Inquired about the validation of the JSON report.

• Aaditya Singh: Based on discussions from the previous week, proposed solutions to encountered problems, including:

  1. Deadlock Handling
  2. Heartbeat Mechanism
  3. Load based on User
  4. Synchronization between Semaphores. Explained how the Golang Scheduler functions.

• Gaurav Mishra: Advised on organizing PRs based on commits to track weekly progress rather than batching all commits into one PR.

• Divij Sharma:

• Abdelrahman Jamal: Worked on integrating semantic search with LLM models.
