Integrating OSSelot curation data into OpenEmbedded: Presenting meta-osselot

Part I: Automated access to OSSelot data via the newly added REST API, Dr. Carsten Emde, OSADL

This first video gives a short presentation of the newly added REST API for automated access to OSSelot compliance material.

Part II: Integrating OSSelot curation data into OpenEmbedded: Using meta-osselot to improve license compliance (Theoretical part and demo), Jasper Orschulko, iris-GmbH infrared & intelligent sensors

In this video, Jasper Orschulko, the project’s creator and maintainer, will present the genesis of meta-osselot as well as its current status and plans for the future. First in theory and in the second part in practice, he will explain and demonstrate the functionality of the tool and show how it can be used in a development project to create an SBOM, obtain available compliance data from the OSSelot database and list those components for which curated data are not yet available. Anyone who builds software for embedded systems with OpenEmbedded or Yocto can learn how to simplify and accelerate FOSS compliance tasks by automating them as far as possible without compromising their quality.
