How about license-review at opensource.org?

[Derek J. Balling]

License discuss is NOT a very precise meaning. Are we discussing licensing 
issues in general? In specific? Is it a place for people who make licenses 
to discuss their after-hours enjoyments? Is it where discussions are held, 
but only if they're licensed first?

This very topic came up in the _first days_ of the list, and a couple 
people had suggested then to change the name to license-review, as it was 
more indicative of what the list was intended for. (In general *-discuss 
lists tend to be more like what you are currently seeing here).

I would vote for creating a new list, license-review, which is clear on 
what it is for, and leave the discussions here, where they seem to match 
the list name.

My $0.03, adjusted for inflation.
