Goal

Certify OpenChain (ISO/IEC 5230) compliance for the elixir-lang/elixir GitHub project.

Impact

Obtaining an OpenChain Certification (ISO/IEC 5230) for the Elixir project would demonstrate that its open source compliance processes meet a globally recognized standard, thereby instilling confidence among current and potential adopters that the project maintains robust and consistent license and governance practices. This heightened trust can lower perceived risk for commercial organizations considering Elixir, accelerating corporate adoption and collaboration. In turn, the certification signals to contributors and the wider community that Elixir is a well-managed and future-proof language, aligning with best practices in open source compliance and providing a solid foundation for long-term project sustainability.

Deliverables

  • Self-Certification of the Elixir project.
