Why? I don't see how an original license author has any moral right to the name. Once the license is released, it belongs to the whole community. I mean, that said, I expect this particular author won't care what we do with the license -- after all, he no longer uses it. But it's entirely possible that he won't respond to contact attempts. I haven't contacted him myself becase I think and OSI board member should do that. -- Josh Berkus _______________________________________________ The opinions expressed in this email are those of the sender and not necessarily those of the Open Source Initiative.
