spdx to cyclondx conversion failure

[trekcampy]

Hi,

I have a spdx version 2.3 SBOM which I am trying to convert to cyclondx and it is failing with following error...

Unhandled exception: System.Text.Json.JsonException: The JSON value could not be converted to CycloneDX.Spdx.Models.v2_2.ExternalRefCategory. Path: $.packages[0].externalRefs[0].referenceCategory | LineNumber: 57 | BytePositionInLine: 56.

And the point where it is failing, has PERSISTENT external reference

            "externalRefs": [
                {
                    "referenceCategory": "PERSISTENT-ID",
                    "referenceLocator": "gitoid:blob:sha1:5a8871a40e79b4459783ca77EEE397e2031363f4",
                    "referenceType": "gitoid"
                },

Does the tool support PERSISTENT type? If not can we have the support added
