Currently, the License Policy only provides simplistic capability to approve or reject a license. We would like to add the capability to “Approve with Conditions” with the ability to define rule based criteria for when the license usage would be approved. The License Policy conditional rules would be aligned with the Inventory Details Usage questions that were introduced in 2019 R1. This feature would allow our legal team to create more fine grain licensing rules and spend less time reviewing project request that could be handled by conditional approvals rules. Example Conditionally Approved Rules: 1) MPL license would be approved if the open source code was “Not Modified” 2) EPL license would be approved if the following conditions were met: a) Open source code was “Not Modified” b) Component was “Dynamically Linked”
