    Hi Seung-Eon,<br>
    <br>
    As others have said, this is the 2-clause BSD license, which is
    already an OSI-approved license. You therefore can use the license
    for any purpose where an open source license is required.<br>
    <br>
    I will mark you license request as withdrawn.<br>
    <br>

        <div>At first glance, your appears to be using the 2-clause BSD
          license. If you are submitting that license with your name as
          the copyright holder, I'm happy to let you know that you don't
          have to. Part of the power of the OSD and the licenses that
          meet its definition is that you don't have to ask anyone to
          release your code under an OSI license. You are welcome to
          apply any of the licenses verbatim, with only your name as the
          copyright holder added, and your users will receive the
          benefits that derive from the OSD. There's no need for you to
          ask anyone, including this list, to do so.<br>

        <div>While, from my first glance, you don't appear to be
          modifying the 2-clause BSD license, if you are, then you may
          have to submit that license to this list. Is that your
          intention?</div>
