It's not.<br>
<br>
Like, I personally recommend against using the AGPL all the time. That<br>
doesn't mean that I don't think it's OSS or that OSI shouldn't have<br>
approved it.<br>
<br>
That said, what we have outstanding is:<br>
<br>
- Several attorneys who think the Unlicense is fine;<br>
- One attorney who says that the license is missing critical wording<br>
required to make it safe to use;<br>
- One developer who thinks it's fine;<br>
- One developer who thinks it's terrible.<br>
<br>
Am I missing anyone?<br>
<br>
Note that, at this point, we haven't had anyone with standing actually<br>
make a formal proposal to approve the Unlicense.<br>
