ClearlyDefined has published a three-year roadmap covering sustainability, technical investment, and adoption. AboutCode developed the roadmap together with the ClearlyDefined community following the OSI and AboutCode Memorandum of Understanding signed in February.
The roadmap is organized around three themes:
- Sustainability: stable funding and governance so the service and its curated data remain available without interruption.
- Technical foundations: modernizing the harvest/import, curation UX, and pipelines, and aligning ClearlyDefined data with PURL, ScanCode, and the rest of the AboutCode project for efficiency gains.
- Adoption and reach: lowering the barrier to entry for new contributors, growing the curator base, and expanding integrations with downstream adopters.
The full plan, including milestones, is in the ClearlyDefined roadmap and is summarized in the OSI announcement.
