Immediate Web tools

• Look for software packages that may have already been curated and provide links to the related disclosure documents.
  Search for an O disclosure document
  
  Please note that the disclosure document may need to be adapted to the actual file set of a binary software distribution, since some files (e.g. for testing or documentation) may not be included.

• Look for software packages that may have already been curated and provide links to display the licenses that are used by a particular version.
  Search for an O list of concluded licenses
  
  Please note that – same as above – more licenses may be found than actually refer to a particular binary software distribution.

• Use the below select box and search field to define a data format and enter the name of a software package. Then select one of the available software versions to immediately run the REST interface for the given package and display the O curation data in a new window.
