Regarding policy compliance there are few references available.
- some of them are listed at the bottom of this page http://www.antepedia.com/pages/community.html - another one very useful too (in Spanish but very easy to understand) http://operaciones.cenatic.es/comunidad-legal/CalculadorLicencias
Hope it helps,
Guillaume

Subject: [FOSSology] Best Practices for use of Fossology

Hi folks,

I've been trying out Fossology and have a pretty good idea what we can do with it.  What 
my question is, "are there recommendations on how to use Fossology in open source 
projects?".  I think what we'd want to do is say we are releasing a product under a 
particular license and to somehow use fossology to help verify that the software 
contained within the product is compatible with the product license.  For instance, the 
linux kernel is released as GPLv2.   We'd want to insure that all the code we release as 
part of the linux kernel is compatible with GPLv2.  Another practice we'd want to follow 
is say we are releasing a product under some proprietary license.  Then we'd want to run 
the software contained in that product through fossology and validate its compatibility 
with the proprietary license.

I didn't see that fossology has any ability to validate compatibility of 
licenses.  Am I looking at this wrong?  What do others do.

Thanks,
Rich
