Big thumbs up to just rename FPL to 0BSD! As OSI’s role is to reduce marketplace confusion and limit (perceived or real) proliferation, and a rename will do exactly that for both, I think it’s a really great idea. Moreover, particularly as a license consumer in the federal government space, I think BSD0 has outstanding potential to garner adoption more than it will/would with the FPL name simply due to legacy familiarity. Doubt there’s many other licenses where one could come close to correctly guessing the text just by hearing 4 letters.
Cheers!
