The SPDX License List includes a list of exceptions. These exceptions grant an exception to a license condition or additional permissions beyond those granted in a license; they are not stand-alone licenses. Exceptions are added to a license using the License Expression Syntax operator "WITH.” This page is not update the usual way, because it is part of the license list and generated differently using some tooling Gary wrote and a template.
