The existence of this key identifies the fork as a software
variant, descending from the specified repositories.

Key ``organisationUri``
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- Type: string
- Presence: optional
- Example: ``"https://example.org/my-organisation"``, ``"urn:x-foobar:my-organisation"``

The URI identifying the organisation owning the software. The value
SHOULD be a stable, resolvable URI or a persistent identifier.

Parsers MAY use the URI structure to extract additional information if it follows a
recognized format (for example, inferring an institutional domain or an
official code).

It is RECOMMENDED that crawlers and consumers of publiccode.yml verify this
information out-of-band, to ensure that the declared `organisationUri` actually
corresponds to the organisation in control of the repository.
The specific verification method depends on the implementation and policies of the
platform consuming the file.

The key can be omitted if no such URI is available.
