<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">I’m now confused. You were asking for legacy approval for a license that had been used for over a decade, but seem to be now modifying it. Is this a legacy approval or a new license approval?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">>></span><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">DOE requires a specific notice</span>
<span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">about their funding and subsequent rights</span>
<span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">and</span> <span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">
need for</span> <span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">their approval be added - see highlighted text<span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Is the funding notification part of the license you’re asking for approval on? It seems the notice below is merely part of the copyright notice, not the license.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">With regard to the statement of approvals added to the license text, is that not an indication that without DOE approval, the license is void or revoked? That seems to create
OSD 7 issues.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
