[License-discuss] revising/updating the license categorization [was Re: proposal to revise and slightly reorganize the OSI licensing pages]

[Lawrence Rosen]

Luis Villa asked:

I've been on the list for almost exactly five years (at least under this
email address) and my archives don't appear to have any such drafts or
discussions from you. I'd be happy for pointers to them, though.

 

The OSI mailing list archives online go back to 2011. :-(  They are of no
help.  Has our past disappeared entirely?

[Changing the subject line because, as I noted when I posted the original
proposal, the proposal was *not* about changing the recommended list at this
time. Please use the original subject line for comments germane to my
original proposal.]

I've been on the list for almost exactly five years (at least under this
email address) and my archives don't appear to have any such drafts or
discussions from you. I'd be happy for pointers to them, though.
