Thank you for this. Indeed it's important. There's the pedantic Conventional Commits linter that wants the first commit message to be in lower case: https://github.com/openlawlibrary/pygls/actions/runs/7994017777/job/21834287284?pr=435#step:7:27 I really should relax that requirement. |
Poetry requires an EXACT match for the License name in order to auto-populate classifiers. Changed "Apache 2.0" to "Apache-2.0"

I think I fixed the commit. The whole point of this PR is to fix a single character that's throwing off an automated tool, so it'd be a little hypocritical for me to not hold myself to the same kind of standard. |

Haha, fair comment. Great, so it's merged now. When would you like to see a formal release? I can do it soon. Otherwise I'd wait a while to see if we get any more PRs in so I can release them all at once. |
|
I don't have an urgent need for a release. I'm sure it'll be fine if a few more PRs get merged in first. |
|
Okay, but please don't hesitate to bump me if you want it sooner. |
|
Hi, Sorry to bump this but I was hit by the same warning from an automated tool. Would it be possible to know when the next release will be cut? Thanks. |
|
No worries at all. I've just made the PR for the release, as soon as it gets reviewed, I'll make the release. |

Released: https://pypi.org/project/pygls/1.3.1/ |
Poetry requires an EXACT match for the License name in order to auto-populate classifiers. Changed
Apache 2.0toApache-2.0From version 1.1.0 forward, after switching to Poetry, PyPI has displayed the license as:
License: Other/Proprietary License (Apache 2.0)PyPI should say:
License: Apache Software License (Apache 2.0)This is caused by the License not being an exact match to what Poetry is expecting.
This is a problem because within enterprise environments, packages are often scanned for security and legal risks. A proprietary, i.e., non-open license can be a legal issue, so it's important to have a proper license declaration to allow automated tools to make a proper evaluation.
