[License-review] For Approval: Rewrite of License Zero Reciprocal Public License

[Rick Moen]

Quoting McCoy Smith (mccoy.smith at intel.com):

For reference, the UCC requirement of 'conspicuous' notice is here:

UCITA (not yet widely adopted and something of a fizzle as a UCC2B
effort; Virginia and Maryland only, so far) incorporates those UCC Article
2 rules, but adds safe harbor provisions relating to the visual
appearance of the printed or displayed text.  (There's a conflict on
these matters between UCITA and provisions of the Federal Magnuson-Moss
Act, 15 USC Sec. 2301, that, last I heard, had not been adjudicated.)
