Hey -discuss,

Over the last few flights I've been on, I've hacked up an API for OSI
approved Open Source licenses.


It's in soft-launch, so nothing pushed out yet, and I'd appreciate it
being kept public-but-not-pushed until after I write up a blog post
about it.


Part of this is a machine readable copy of the OSI Licenses, found at:
https://github.com/opensourceorg/licenses


It's underdocumented, so bear with me while I get things together!


You can find the Open Source API at:

   https://api.opensource.org/

Some light documentation at:

   https://github.com/opensourceorg/api/blob/master/doc/endpoints.md

A Python wrapper I hacked up:

   https://github.com/opensourceorg/python-opensource

Some example queries:

  https://api.opensource.org/licenses/
  https://api.opensource.org/licenses/permissive
  https://api.opensource.org/license/GPL-3.0
  https://api.opensource.org/license/SPDX/Apache-2.0

Cheers,
  Paul
