I just published The Open Contributions Descriptor format as an IETF Internet-Draft.

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-dulaunoy-open-contributions-descriptor/

The Open Contributions Descriptor

This document defines the Open Contributions Descriptor (OCD), a JSON format for publishing machine-readable metadata about an organization's participation in the open ecosystem. OCD allows organizations to publish a single discovery document describing open source projects, open data publications, open standards participation, contact information, governance material, and declared relationships to external organizations and projects. OCD is intended to be published at a predictable well-known location to support automated discovery, indexing, and ecosystem analysis.

ミラノから日本に帰国して最初のお仕事の成果が公開されました！

地理空間情報標準化の重要性を認識した最初の時代はWMSとKML。それから20年経つと、OGCが果たしてきた成果を積み重ねて次世代のオープンスタンダードな地理空間情報が社会の基盤となってきています。PLATEAUはまさに世界に先駆けてOGCと共にそんな未来を作っています。

The Open Contributions Descriptor (OCD) is an open, machine-readable JSON format that allows an organization to publish a structured description of its participation in the open ecosystem.

It's still a bit in flux but the goal of OCD is to make organizational openness discoverable, interoperable, and automatable.

Have you ever tried doing digital forensics using an SBOM or even just gathering evidence for a technical investigation from one?

No file hashes, a single cryptographic signature covering an arbitrary set of files, and often missing full paths or permissions.

Many SBOM standards need a serious revamp if they are to support DFIR use cases
