The Linux Foundation Announces New Tool for Tracking Free and Open Source Software Components

The Linux Foundation has announced the release of The Linux Foundation FOSS Bar Code Tracker. "Released as an open source project under the MIT license, the new software tool aims to simplify the way open source components are tracked and reported by using an auto-generated, custom QR code for each product. The QR code contains important information on the Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) stack contained in a product, such as component names, version numbers, license information and links to download the source code, among other details."
