<p>I\u2019d like to bring up the curl license again. The first reports on
this topic emerged in early February.<br>
I\u2019ve received some positive feedback, with the note that this is a
license that falls under the legacy category.<br>
Unfortunately, I\u2019m not sure what the next steps are.</p>
<p>Best regards<br>
Christoph</p>

<p style="margin-top:12;margin-bottom:12;margin-left:40;margin-right:40;">I
agree. In my opinion this was the intention of the legacy
category, a more liberal review of licenses that are widely
accepted as open source.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;"><br>
This is in line with my understanding and I also support the
inclusion (+ same \u201cconcerns\u201d as Carlo).</p>
