Open Knowledge Format (OKF)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OKFM is a profile over the Open Knowledge Format, published by the Google Cloud
Data Cloud team and licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0:

    https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/knowledge-catalog

OKFM targets OKF v0.2. It does not fork the format. Every OKFM addition is an
optional frontmatter key prefixed `okfm_`, and a bundle produced by this project is
simultaneously a conformant OKF v0.2 bundle and an OKFM bundle. Removing every
`okfm_` key leaves a valid OKF bundle — a property enforced in CI as the strip test
(spec 7.1).

The names "Open Knowledge Format" and "OKF" refer to that specification. OKFM is an
independent project and is not endorsed by or affiliated with Google.

No OKF material is vendored in this repository at present. Should the specification
later be vendored for offline validation, it will be included verbatim, retaining its
Apache-2.0 license text and attribution, per spec 13.8.
