We had the idea to export data from OSS Directory for use in this project, with an API endpoint* to collect all the currently available products. However the metadata differs quite a lot from the publiccode.yml standard. We also thought going the other way, encouraging adoption of the standard for import into OSS Directory, could be useful.

* here is the command to fetch a JSON-formatted list of products: curl https://api.ossdirectory.com/api/products?search=&pagination[page]=1&pagination[pageSize]=1000

📣 Updating the Free Software Directory will be one of the projects to choose from during this weekend's FSF40 hackathon (Nov 21-23, 2025). You can either choose to participate in the hackathon as an individual, or as a team consisting of up to four people. Official acknowledgment certificates and prizes will be awarded to contributors. See https://www.fsf.org/events/fsf40-hackathon for more details.

Started a pull request on codeberg/dribdat to add a publiccode.yml file.
