X-UIDL: 29f9f1b18c8abb5c4ad63cff68b43f79 Greetings! Since problems were discovered in the Apple Public Source License 1.0 with respect to OSD conformance, we've been working with Apple on revising those sections of the APSL that were cited as problematic. This morning, Apple released version 1.1 of the APSL. It's the opinion of the board of directors of OSI that this answers the issues brought up before, and thus conforms to the OSD. However, in the interests of making the certification process more open, we elected to not grant formal certification until the members of this list have had a chance to review the new language in APSL 1.1. So, folks, here's your chance. We will take comments on the license until Thursday, April 22nd. On Friday, the board of OSI will decide, based on the messages posted to this list, whether APSL 1.1 is OSD-conformant. We ask that comments about the license be *restricted* to its conformance to the *current* Open Source Definition, strictly speaking. Issues as to whether the OSD needs to be expanded to cover something in the license is off-topic, at least until after we've cleared out any issues with the APSL. The URL to the APSL 1.1 is at http://publicsource.apple.com/apsl/ Thanks, The OSI Board of Directors. ----- End forwarded message ----- -- __________________________________________________________________ Ean Schuessler A guy running Linux Novare International Inc.
