[License-discuss] Generic process for removing approved licenses. Re: REMOVE AAL from list of approved licenses

[Pamela Chestek]

I understand the concept of decertifying or removing, but I am very 
confused by the use of the term "deprecate." The current category of 
licenses are:

Popular and widely-used or with strong communities
International
Special purpose
Other/Miscellaneous
Redundant
Non-reusable
Superseded
Voluntarily retired
Uncategorized

Are y'all suggesting yet another category, "deprecated"? And how does 
that differ from some other categories, "non-reusable" in particular? 
Why can't problematic licenses just be reclassified as "non-reusable"?
