<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">>>Ultimately, it’s up to the licensor & licensee to decide that, but I could see it being used in all those cases. As you know different entities have different philosophies about
whether managing projects can be done just on the basis of the license itself (inbound and outbound), license (outbound) and license + DCO (inbound), or license (outbound) + CLA (inbound). The license itself would not preclude (nor would it be biased toward)
any of those models. <<<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">>>We have had several over the past couple of years where we thought it would be useful, but we really wanted to have it OSI approved before we ever made use of it. If/when we
get the OSI approval, I’ll go back to my Open Source Approval Board here at Intel and see if any of those projects are ones we could use this license for, or if there are any projects in the pipeline where we could first use this license. None immediately
comes to mind but it’s been several months since I talked to them about this license and its approval status. Also, I’ll be contacting FSF re getting it added to the GPL compatible, free software license list (they invited me to do so after the OSI approval
occurred, so that might open up other situations where the license could be useful.<<<o:p></o:p></p>
