Usage Advice
Use when
- Use to carry the full legal text of a licence (spdx:licenseText) — typically only for a custom or bespoke licence whose text is not a standard SPDX-identified one.
Avoid when
- Avoid inlining the text of a standard licence (reference it by
gmeow:spdxLicenseIdand resolve the canonical text by reference, P5) and avoid using it as the licence identity.
How to use
- Set
gmeow:licenseTexton agmeow:Licenseonly when the full text must travel with the data; otherwise carrygmeow:spdxLicenseIdand let consumers resolve the SPDX text.
Examples
- ex:customLicense
gmeow:licenseText"Permissionis hereby granted …".
