Missing Merge tool #182

Open silverhook opened 5 years ago

silverhook commented 5 years ago

When I try to run java -jar spdx-tools-2.1.12-jar-with-dependencies.jar MergeSpdxDocs on some SPDX files, I get the following error:

The merge tools are currently being upgraded to SPDX 2.0

Apart from that error notice, I could not find any roadmap or issue describing it, so I opened one here.

@goneall, that’s a pity. How much work is needed for the merge tool to be working again? Is there a TODO list for it?

goneall commented 5 years ago

@silverhook It is a reasonable amount of work - I would guess on the order of magnitude 40 hours. We work from the issues list in terms of TODO.

I'll bump this up by adding a help wanted tag.

goneall commented 5 years ago

The code that needs to be updated is in the merge package and the merge main class.

@gling07 Do you have any time to update?
