Boost-1.0 vs BSL-1.0 #28

Closed epsilon-0 closed 3 years ago

epsilon-0 commented 4 years ago

There seems to be a slight misunderstanding in the Boost-1.0 reporting as there is a BSL-1.0 (bussiness source license): https://mariadb.com/bsl-faq-adopting/

Fix: Report Boost-1.0 and not as BSL-1.0

dalance commented 3 years ago

BSL-1.0 is the official SPDX identifier of Boost Software License 1.0. And BUSL-1.1 is Business Software License 1.1.

https://spdx.org/licenses/

I think the notation should follow SPDX because Cargo requires SPDX identifier for the licence field.
