Policies

In the Policies section is possible to create, modify or delete the policies related to the licenses of opensource components. Every policy can be associated with a set of projects using regular expressions or tags.

Every rule defines the licenses that are/are not allowed. The standard used is the SPDX, but specific extensions are provided for some proprietary licenses and specific licenses for some software producers.

The policies screen

The system already provides pre-compiled templates to manage some common cases:

• exclusion of all Copyleft licenses

• exclusions of all Affero licenses

• exclusions of all GPL licenses
