I've started a thread on spdx-legal@ in which I propose a (IMHO
feasible) compromise in my latest email. As Nico already stated, we are
all in for collaboration with SPDX to not create two differing
standards, so let's hope we will come to a decision which makes
handling of snippets easy for developers and tools!

Best,
