Andrew:

When this license was introduced to License-Review, I was told in
response to my question that it would cover embedded software included
with open hardware designs.  However, reading over the User Guide, I see
no reference whatsoever to embedded software, just to software used to
create designs.  Further, according to the examples given, the license
isn't for that software, it's just for the designs themselves.

What software is this license intended to cover, if any?  It's hard for
me to interpret it without clearly understanding that.
