This is entirely non-technical, but what is the reason for CycloneDX to exist in the first place? SPDX is an older standard, it's managed by Linux Foundation, and yet some people decided to go off and write their own thing instead of working with SPDX to evolve that in the desired direction. And then they promote it with a long list of company logos. Xkcd's standards link would be too tired and obvious here. Alex
