15
- the [ v0.7 branch] ( https://github.com/spdx/tools-python/tree/version/v0.7 ) .
16
- Note, though, that this will only receive bug fixes but no new features.
12

13
+ SPDX v3.0 release, leading to breaking changes in the API.

19
- - want to use the soon-to-be released SPDX v3.0 in the future
20
- - want to perform full validation of your SPDX documents against the v2.2 and v2.3 specification
21
- - want to use the RDF format of SPDX with all v2.3 features.
17

24
- please have a look at the [ migration guide] ( https://github.com/spdx/tools-python/wiki/How-to-migrate-from-0.7-to-0.8 ) .
19
+ The main features of v0.8 are:
