The license field is mandatory, and requires at least once license:

"licenses": {
"title": "OSS component licenses",
"description": "At least one license is required.",

How can you then document the presence of a component which has no license declared (out of error, for example), in order to reach out to the component owner to declare a license?

At first I was considering to add a "dummy" license entry with spdx set to NOASSERTION, but that does not work as a license text is also mandatory:

@WernerMueller or @krauskopf, can you advise here?

FYI, this is how I propose to work around the issue in the ORT reporter.
