Thanks for excellent coverage of all topics in FOSS, LWN. Great summary of the situation as it stands right now!

I have been urging people to join OSI's license-review list and post their thoughts. Historically, “OSI-certified license” approval decisions have been heavily influenced by the license-review email thread. Decisions are made by those who show up.

Furthermore, note that any OSI license approval is permanent. OSI offers no appeals process, and no re-review process on its past certifications. Until that changes, the stakes remain high because what gets decided on this license in the next few weeks could set the tone for a generation on LLM-gen-AI and Open Source.
