Description Gunnar Wagenknecht CLA 2017-11-28 01:32:50 EST
I just checked https://spdx.org/licenses/ and noticed that the EPL 2.0 is not included there. I think it should be added to the list.
Comment 1 Wayne Beaton CLA 2017-11-29 11:03:10 EST
I discussed this months ago with the SPDX team and had assumed that it was done. In retrospect, that was not a particulary good assumption on my part.

We did agree that the SPDX code is EPL-2.0.

I've created a pull request to add the license to their license list.

So, apparently management of the license list is being moved to another repository.

Thanks a lot Wayne!
Comment 4 Jeremie Bresson CLA 2017-12-05 04:57:57 EST
This is a blocker for the addition of epl-2.0 on bintray.com (See Bug 528141).

I will watch the Merge Request on GitHub.

It looks like the pull request has been merged. EPL-2.0 will appear in the next release of the license list.

Since I'm pretty sure that we've done everything that we can do, I'm going to mark this FIXED.

Wayne, can you answer the question on the Pull Request?
https://github.com/spdx/license-list-XML/pull/499#discussion_r158734891

For me this bug is really resolved when we see "EPL-2.0" on https://spdx.org/licenses/

Fine with me. Reopened.
Comment 8 Jeremie Bresson CLA 2018-01-03 02:18:51 EST
I now see "EPL-2.0" on the list: https://spdx.org/licenses/

Thank you a lot!
