[License-review] Consensus on L0-R

[Bruce Perens]

*> 5. If you run this software to analyze, modify, or generate> software,
you must release source code for that software.*

At the time, around November 11, I pointed out that this really obviously
and inarguably violated OSD #6, and I wasn't the only one pointing this
out. As far as I am aware, the consensus was that it wasn't an Open Source
license.

The discussion devolved to topics not connected with the license after
that, eventually requiring intervention by OSI's president.

I understand that you want to create a business method for people who don't
have one now. One that OSI is not obligated to approve as Open Source. But
you really could be out creating a user community for this as a
non-Open-Source license. Lots of people use non-Open-Source licenses.
However, when I asked you to introduce me to someone who was interested in
the license, no names were forthcoming. So, I have to believe this is only
theoretical.

    Thanks
