License report is wrong for Kokkos project

License Status of Kokkos Repository
The Kokkos repository is licensed under Apache License v2.0 with LLVM Exceptions kokkos/LICENSE at develop · kokkos/kokkos +2, which is an OSI-approved open source license.
Why the Report is Wrong
Apache 2.0 is OSI and FSF approved: The Apache Software Foundation and the Free Software Foundation agree that the Apache License 2.0 is a free-software license, compatible with the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 3 Wikipedia.
LICENSE file exists: The repository clearly has a LICENSE file in both the develop and master branches containing the full Apache 2.0 license text with LLVM exceptions.
"NOASSERTION" finding is incorrect: The report claims the license is "NOASSERTION," which typically means a license scanning tool couldn't identify the license. This appears to be an error in whatever tool generated this report, as the repository clearly displays its Apache 2.0 with LLVM Exceptions license.
Conclusion
The Kokkos repository already meets requirement OSPS-LE-02.01. It has:
✅ A LICENSE file in the repository
✅ An OSI-approved license (Apache 2.0)
✅ An FSF-approved free software license (Apache 2.0)
The LLVM exception is an addition that provides GPLv2 compatibility and compiler-output exceptions, but doesn't change the fact that the base Apache 2.0 license is both OSI and FSF approved.
