Yes. Consider my comment to be an expression of frustration with license
authors who don't clearly express what they actually want and/or don't
think through all of the possible consequences of their text. Regarding who
the copyright holders are, I see that the license *itself *is copyrighted
by the OpenLDAP foundation.

If this were anything but a legacy submission, I'd ask for it to be fixed.
As it's a legacy submission, this is to be taken as a note for future
license authors, and I do not have any further objection to approval.
