**Notes**

- Great overview from Yev on SPDX (slides kindly provided immediately above).
  - What and how much should we use from SPDX?
  - It seems like it could replace pretty much the entire currently proposed format, is that desirable? Would it have restrictions that prevent use cases being met?
  - Should probably adopt the SPDX license names - [https://spdx.org/licenses/](https://spdx.org/licenses/)

- Review of 2nd draft of report format
  - just use the single composed string value for CPEs

- Blackduck offered to give a deep dive in the future on how CVSS scores are calculated.
- Next meeting scheduled for 2017-07-31, will focus on use cases for scan reports

The SPDX presentation was great. We can definitely borrow a lot, at the very least, and there seems to be strong overlap of interests.

I updated the draft specification. I made cpes an array because there are multiple versions of this specification as well. Score should be an array, as there could be many of them, and I added scoring metrics.

One thing that’s a bit awkward about this design is that vulns will often reference CVEs which reference CPEs, but we’re putting CPE above vulns in our model. I think it makes sense, because while CVEs can relate to many products (CPEs), an entry in the BoM is by definition only part of one.

There’s a note that the next meeting is scheduled for 31 July, just wanted to confirm whether it’s 8am PST again?
