[Geurts, Bryan A. (GSFC-1401)]

That is an interesting approach . . .  If we resubmit, will we be engaged or simply ignored, as before?

Subject: Resolution on NOSA 2.0

The OSI board has adopted the following resolution on the NASA Open Source Agreement 2.0:
"Resolved, That, in view of the length, complexity, and ambiguities in the submitted drafts of the NASA Open Source Agreement version 2.0, it is the opinion of the OSI that the conformance of NOSA 2.0 to the OSD cannot be assured. OSI thus can neither approve nor reject the license, and NASA is invited to submit a new draft of NOSA for consideration by the OSI."
