Hi all,
In June 2023, the License Review Working Group completed its work
revising the license review process. There was an outstanding task
that grew out of the Working Group, which was to create tags for the
approved licenses that could be used as an aid in filtering approved
licenses for their characteristics.
There are two stages to this task. The first stage is to create a list
of tags to be attached to licenses. There is already a preliminary
list
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1svyrUgE6xwzaNO4xnhTT0-pHPblwBm__BArtttkQWxk/edit?usp=sharing>,
so we should be able to complete this task in a fairly short period of
time.
The second stage is to add the tags to the existing licenses. I would
like to have as many people as possible willing to assist in this
task. There are over 100 licenses and I would like to have each
license reviewed by two people, a primary reviewer and verifier. You
do not have to be a lawyer to participate, only comfortable reading
and understanding open source licenses.
If you are interested in helping with this task, please respond to me
only (to save spamming everyone).
Thanks,
Pam Chestek
