In https://github.com/spdx/license-list-data/blob/main/accessingLicenses.md the subsection https://github.com/spdx/license-list-data/blob/main/accessingLicenses.md#list-of-licenses notes:

The definition of the table columns can be found in the Explanation of SPDX License List Fields section on the License List Overview webpage.

That link gives a 404 error. The explanation of fields appears in https://github.com/spdx/license-list-XML/blob/main/DOCS/license-fields.md but I'm not seeing if or where publishes outside that repo. There are additional spdx.org vs .dev and license table publication oddities I'm stumbling into from the accessingLicenses.md, but I think they're captured in #186

Thanks @tpepper-gov for reporting this. Looks like this has gotten out of date.

@swinslow @jlovejoy - should I update this in place or should we move this info to the license-list-XML repo where we maintain the related information?

[jlovejoy]

@goneall - move what to the license-list-XML repo? - this article?

I'll check links and do a PR to update appropriately.

I don't think there is a complete equivalent to the source - it was the original description of how to access the license list data several years ago. That being said, there are several markdown files in the license list XML that covers some of these topics.

@swinslow @jlovejoy - Going back through the license list publisher issues - I'm thinking we should replace the above referenced file in the license list data repo with pointers to the license-list-XML repo documentation.

What do you think?
