Based on that, there could be an argument to have a different name / id than Linux-OpenIB as this is not entirely Linux-specific. The license is called BSD (MIT) at libfabric which is likely not a happy name. May be something like openfabrics-bsd may be a better name? NB: I feel very weakly about which name to pick, so feel free to ignore this entirely. -- Cordially Philippe Ombredanne _______________________________________________ Spdx-legal mailing list Spdx-legal@lists.spdx.org https://lists.spdx.org/mailman/listinfo/spdx-legal
