" summary

OpenChain presents a concrete spec released this week that defines what effective FOSS management looks like, organized into six goals covering written policy and training, assigned responsibility, identifying and tracking FOSS, delivering compliance artifacts, community engagement, and conformance. It provides a starter curriculum and a forthcoming teacher’s guide, uses SPDX for complete package data, and plans a self-certification questionnaire for vendors. The project is scalable for two to twenty thousand employees and aims to reduce legal friction and build trust in the software supply chain.
