The SBOM Sub-Group of the OpenChain Japan Work Group has officially submitted their proposal for the inclusion of SPDX Lite in the forthcoming SPDX 3.0 standard for Software Bill of Materials.
SPDX Lite was originally included in SPDX 2.2 and became part of SPDX ISO/IEC 5962:2021 in August 2021.
SPDX Lite is designed to make it quick and easy to get started with a Software Bill of Materials in situations where a company may have limited capacity for introducing new items in their process management. It aims to balance the SPDX standard and actual workflows in some industries.
