License Policy

This document serves as the overarching policy for licensing across all sigstore projects.

Policy Statement

All sigstore projects MUST be licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (Apache-2.0). This is non-negotiable, given that sigstore is a project within the OpenSSF and the charter of the OpenSSF requires that all software projects be Apache-2.0 licensed.

Enforcement

Each project within the sigstore GitHub organization MUST have:

  • a LICENSE file in the root of the repository that contains the appropriate Apache-2.0 license text
  • automation that checks all the dependencies used by the project(s) contained in that repository use licenses that are compliant with the terms of the Apache-2.0 license.

An example tool that can be used to achieve this goal is the Dependency Review GitHub Action. A reusable workflow for leveraging this action can be found in this repository .github/workflows/reusable-dependency-review.yml
