I need the full names for the SPDX licenses in the JSON file.

@davidhedlund Suggest you get the full names of the SPDX licenses from the [SPDX JSON file](https://spdx.org/licenses/licenses.json). You can correlate with this JSON file using the SPDX ID's. I realize this is a bit more work programmatically, but the SPDX JSON file is generated from the license-XML and will be more maintained than the fsf-api utility.

I noticed that you are a contributor to this repository. How much time would it take for you to implement this in the FSF-API tool? It is needed to finish our [license list in the Free Software Directory (FSF project)](https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Free_Software_Directory:SPDX_Group).

It is needed to finish our license list in the Free Software Directory (FSF project). Since my PR's haven't been merged for over 2 years, I made a fork of this repo at https://github.com/spdx/fsf-api and with the help of other contributors have made several improvements. I'm very interested in the FSF project mentioned above. Let's continue the conversation in the [spdx/fsf-api issues](https://github.com/spdx/fsf-api).
