OpenChain Releases Spanish Translation
SAN FRANCISCO, United States, July 21, 2017 — The OpenChain Project is proud to announce that the OpenChain Specification is officially available in Spanish. This translation is the result of dedicated work by Malcolm Bain of ID Law Partners and Daniel German of the University of Victoria.
“OpenChain is an international project with an international audience,” says Shane Coughlan, OpenChain Program Manager. “It is vital that we provide our core material in major languages to ensure that everyone has easy access to knowledge that makes open source more efficient. I am delighted to welcome our Spanish translations to the existing Japanese and Portuguese material, and I look forward to similar releases in other languages in the near future.”
The OpenChain Project identifies key recommended processes for effective open source management. The project builds trust in open source by making open source license compliance simpler and more consistent.
The OpenChain Specification defines a core set of requirements every quality compliance program must satisfy. The OpenChain Curriculum provides the educational foundation for open source processes and solutions, whilst meeting a key requirement of the OpenChain Specification. OpenChain Conformance allows organizations to display their adherence to these requirements.
The result is that open source license compliance becomes more predictable, understandable and efficient for participants of the software supply chain.
Organizations of all sizes are invited to review the OpenChain Project, to complete our free Online Self-Certification Questionnaire, and to join our community of trust.
