<div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">As McCoy points out, the various classifications were created over a decade ago by a one-off consultative committee chartered by the Board to address the extreme proliferation of open source licenses that was topical at the time. The Committee found the matter contentious and when they finally delivered a report it did not offer OSI a means to make a continuously-updated judgement, or even a means to update the one-off categories that were recommended. Consequently, the categories have become outdated through lack of maintenance.<div><br></div><div>OSI's Board has been reluctant to tinker with the lists and it's hard to see why any given license should be able to appeal for recategorisation without the whole exercise being repeated.

<p>That's a good question and one I don't have the answer to. I
would define the category as licenses that are used by thousands
of projects and one that everyone knows, as we all use "GPL,"
"MIT," and "Apache" understanding that everyone will know what
we're talking about. I can imagine that this would be true of the
Mulan at some point. I would write to this list at that point and
ask for a reclassification.</p>

Decision date: due no later than the first Board meeting
after February 6, 2020<br>
<br>
License Review Committee Recommendation: <br>
<br>
Resolved that it is the opinion of the OSI that the Mulan
PSL License v2 be approved as an Open Source Initiative
Approved License in the International category of licenses.<br>
<br>
<u>Rationale Document</u><br>
<br>
<u>Notes</u>: <br>
<br>
The license was modified twice in response to comments on
license-review, addressing the criticisms made. There have
been no comments suggesting that the last version of the
license submitted is not an open source license. <br>
<br>
The OSI believes that a Chinese language open source
license, which will encourage the release of open source
software by the Chinese community, is a valuable addition to
the list of approved licenses.<br>
<br>
The submitter requested categorization in the “Popular and
Widely Used or With Strong Communities” category, however it
is being placed in the “International” category. The license
has not been in existence long enough to be considered for
the “Popular and Widely Used or With Strong Communities”
category.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span>I have one
observation and one criticism.</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:宋体"><u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>The
observation is that this looks like a couple
of licenses like the BSD+patents. While
arguably the text is more streamlined and
modern, building on the experience in
licensing that we have accrued since the BSD
times, I wonder if there is such desperate
need for yet another license. Except perhaps
one in Chinese. </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:宋体"><u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>The
criticism is founded on a long debated issue
about whether multi-language licenses are a
good idea. As you know, GNU GPL family decided
that the only ever authoritative version is
the English one, and I tend to agree with the
rationale underneath. It is tremendously
difficult to exactly match the same meaning
across multiple languages, and my experience
in dissecting legal instruments of the EU --
limiting to those few languages I am
reasonably confident perusing -- is that it is
very difficult to find a single meaning. Often
one should find it comparing different
versions and with the help of the recitals,
and yet it is very difficult to reach a final
point. </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:宋体"><u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Moreover,
you state in your introduction that the rule
is (roughly) "either is normative". But that
rule is nowhere expressed in the license
itself. I am afraid this would then be totally
left to the local court, in case. Yet, a
license lives not only in court, but also in
the current interpretation of those using it,
who would not have the benefit of a third
party picking up one version or the other. </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:宋体"><u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Frankly, I
see little merit in creating confusion by
using two languages on equal footing. On the
other hand, the fact that the license is
non-copyleft reduces the concerns on possible
negative consequences. </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:宋体"><u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>I wonder if
those concerns have also been tackled in your
legal analysis, and what the answer were, in
case. </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:宋体"><u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>I totally
love the name of the license.</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:宋体"><u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Suppose one

<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Would it be
possible to make one version authoritative is
some countries and the other authoritative in
the rest of the world? You could says
something like "the Chinese version is the
official version in China, Hong Kong, etc. and
the English version is the official version in
the other countries of the world." If you said
that the Chinese version was authoritative
everywhere, and then litigate the license in

comments on this submission; sorry I didn’t

<p class="MsoNormal"><span>This looks
like a variant on Apache, so my initial
question on this was why not translate Apache
into Chinese, and have that be the
authoritative version? However, there are
some substantive differences here with Apache,
so that proposition would not make sense if
the goal is to achieve some improvements or
variants to canonical Apache, as well as to
have an authoritative native Chinese language
license. The substantive differences do raise
questions in my mind though (note that some of
these may be the result of translation from
Chinese to English, so perhaps some clarity in
the English-translated submission is required
rather than changes to the license text
itself):<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:宋体;background:white" lang="ZH-CN">“</span><span>Software
means the program and related documents which
are comprised of those Contribution and
licensed under this License.”<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>The
grammar, in English, of this definition is
awkward. It probably should say:<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:宋体;background:white" lang="ZH-CN">“</span><span>’Software’
means the program and related documents which

<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Also:<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:宋体;background:white" lang="ZH-CN">“</span><span>Affiliates
means entities that control, or are controlled
by, or are under common control with a party
to this License, ‘control’ means direct or
indirect ownership of at least fifty percent
(50%) of the voting power, capital or other
securities of controlled or commonly
controlled entity.”<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>I think you
may not want use the term “party” here, as it
would apply both to the entity/person giving
the grant (licensor), and the entities/persons
receiving the grant (licensee). This looks
like it is styled to be a “bare license” (vs a
contract), in which case use of “party” here
could be construed as an effort to make
binding obligations that go in both ways (vs
having all terms merely be conditions upon the
grant of the licenses). If your intent is to
have this be interpreted as a contract, for
which both parties (licensor and licensee) are
agreeing to obligations, you might want to
clarify what is the binding obligation of the
licensee (entity receiving the grant) to the
licensor (entity giving the grant),
particularly what obligations you believe
Affiliates of the licensee should be bound to.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>And:<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:宋体;background:white" lang="ZH-CN">“</span><span>2. Grant of

<p class="MsoNormal"><span>*** where
such patent license is only limited to the
patent claims owned or controlled by such
Contributor now or in future which will be
necessarily infringed by its Contribution
alone, or by combination of the Contribution
with the Software to which the Contribution
was contributed, excluding of any patent
claims solely be infringed by your or others’
modification or other combinations.”<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>The
grammar, in English, of the last part of that
statement is awkward. I’d suggest you just
use the language straight out of, e.g.,
Eclipse:<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>“The patent
license shall not apply to any other
combinations which include the Contribution.”<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>In
addition:<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:宋体;background:white" lang="ZH-CN">“</span><span>If you or
your Affiliates directly or indirectly
(including through an agent, patent licensee
or assignee), institute patent litigation
(including a cross claim or counterclaim in a
litigation) or other patent enforcement
activities against any individual or entity by
alleging that the Software or any Contribution
in it infringes patents, then any patent
license granted to you under this License for
the Software shall terminate as of the date
such litigation or activity is filed or
taken.”<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>The
parenthetical here is potentially highly
problematic, as it doesn’t limit what sort of
“agent,” “patent licensee” or “assignee” to
which it applies. I think you intend here to
indicate an “agent, patent licensee or
assignee” *which has been granted the right to
institute patent litigation using a
Contributor’s patent that is claimed to be
infringed by the Software.* If that is the
case, it should be made clear. Otherwise, it –
as written – would cover a non-exclusive
licensee of a general corporate patent
cross-license who asserts a patent claim
against the Software based on a patent that
that non-exclusive licensee developed
independent of the Contributor. The same
would apply to “agent” and “assignee”
(although in that case, an agent for any
purpose might be potentially implicated). If
you did intend the defensive suspension claim
to be that broad in scope, I don’t think it
violates the OSD, but it likely means that
many entities will not wish to use the
license, as any contractual relation it enters
into with other entities that could be
characterized as agency or assignment (or the
granting of any sort of patent license) means
that their continued use of software is at
risk based on independent actions of those
parties using their own patents.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>5.
Disclaimer of Warranty and Limitation of
Liability<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>The
Software and Contribution in it are provided
without warranties of any kind, either express
or implied. In no event shall any Contributor
or copyright holder be liable to you for any
damages, including, but not limited to any
direct, or indirect, special or consequential
damages arising from your use or inability to
use the Software or the Contribution in it, no
matter how it’s caused or based on which legal
theory, even if advised of the possibility of
such damages.”<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Since
you’re already using red to highlight the
“Language” clause, I’d suggest you might want
to do that for the “Disclaimer of Warranty and
Limitation of Liability,” as (at least in the
USA), making such disclaimers “conspicuous”
(for example, using a different color, or a
box, or ALL CAPS) can be considered required
for it to be effective (<a href="https://mjlr.org/2015/09/19/out-of-sight-out-of-mind-hidden-disclaimers-and-ucc-%C2%A7-2-316s-conspicuousness-requirement/" target="_blank">https://mjlr.org/2015/09/19/out-of-sight-out-of-mind-hidden-disclaimers-and-ucc-%C2%A7-2-316s-conspicuousness-requirement/</a>)<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Nota bene:
My friend Carlo compared this license to
“BSD+Patents”; I’ve gotten to the point where
I now tend to include a parenthetical because
of the confusion between “BSD+Patents”
(plural, the license that Facebook used for a
short time with react.js but later stopped
using because of negative reaction to the
patent defensive suspension clause) and
“BSD+Patent” (singular, the OSI-approved
license, that does not even have a patent
defensive suspension clause because it is
designed to be GPLv2 compatible).? Remember
that the “singular” license is the OSI
approved, GPLv2 compatible one!<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>?That
license was written and submitted by me on
behalf of my prior employer so I feel some
duty to continue to point out this
clarification….<u></u><u></u></span></p>
