RFC 5785 for publiccode.yml files

Thanks for your work on publiccode.yml.

We're considering using the /.well-known/ directory to make discovery easier. Have you already worked on this and registered a key for publiccode.yml? Also, how do you represent an array of projects?

hello @adulau we had thoughts on this but decided not to proceed as the publiccode.yml format is closely related to code and not to a specific deployment of it. can you elaborate further on what you'd like to happen?

@adulau as @ruphy said, it wasn't designed for that, but linking publiccode.yml to a verified organization without any extra onboarding step is extremely attractive.

Just for brainstorming: YAML supports multiple documents in a single file, so in theory a single publiccode.yml could represent multiple projects as well.

Meanwhile I opened https://github.com/italia/publiccode-parser-go/issues/219
