If the OSI wants to be representative of the open source community—which it must if it wants to be legitimate—it can’t just ignore a concern that’s become mainstream* among open source practitioners. Note I’m not saying: “change the OSD to allow ethical licenses,” I’m saying “work hand in hand to account for the concerns of the broader community to find reasonable solutions that meet those concerns.” —tobie —- * For scale, the twitter poll I ran earlier this year from my personal account had more respondents in favor of a Hippocratic-like license than there are OSI members (and roughly twice as more than OSI members that voted).
