As a member of the community of Open Source developers and users, I recommend 
to the approval body that this license be approved forthwith. I would call 
attention to the fact that this license is already approved by the Free 
Software Foundation as being GPL compatible and suitable for the use in Free 
Software projects. The text of the license itself is remarkably similar to 
existing Open Source licenses. I have not found any phrase, clause or section 
in this license that is contrary to the Open Source Definition.

In addition, I am currently using software released under this license (tidy).

Thank you,
