Store LICENSE and README.md in respective entity’s root folder in a CSAR

Context and Problem Statement

LICENSE and README.md have to be stored in a standardized location when CSARs are exported.

Decision Drivers

• Standardized CSAR structure

Considered Options

• Store these files in a root folder of a respective entity
• Store these files in separate folders in a root folder of a respective entity

Decision Outcome

Chosen option: “Store these files in a root folder of a respective entity”, because

• Less visual clutter
• In repository, these files are not separated and stored together with the definition file

Positive Consequences

• Standardized access to LICENSE and README.md files in any Winery-exported CSAR

Negative Consequences

• Puts additional restrictions on the CSAR’s structure
