>>When I looked at the Python license tangle, which was many years ago, I concluded that only the most recent license was actually applicable, and that the other licenses were inert but could not be removed because they themselves said they could not be, like so many DNA viruses -- they get copied when Python is but have no >>function at all.

If that is true in this case, then this isn’t really a request for an approval of a license, it is a request for an approval of header formatting.  The license he wants to use here, Boost, is already approved.
