Van - can you clarify why you seemed to expect a decision on the
license at the next OSI board meeting? The board generally meets once
a month. Under the license review process
(https://opensource.org/approval), normally a decision on a newly
submitted license is due 60 days after submission, which would be
sometime in late June.
