Plan 9 license

[Ralph Mellor]

As of Nov 1, 2002, the Plan 9 license at URL

    http://www.cs.bell-labs.com/plan9dist/license.html

is labelled "Version 1.4 - 09/10/02" and titled

    "PLAN 9 OPEN SOURCE LICENSE AGREEMENT"

It turns out that this license is still *NOT* OSD compliant,
ie. it is not what those running the OSI would label "Open
Source".

I have asked members of the Plan 9 community to
switch to use of a term other than "Open Source" until
such time as their license is OSD compliant, but they
are not responsive. Hence this email, for the record.
