confused by the use of the term "deprecate." The current category of
licenses are:
Popular and widely-used or with strong communities
International
Special purpose
Other/Miscellaneous
Redundant
Non-reusable
Superseded

Why? I don't see how an original license author has any moral right to

FSF’s definition of what is a free software license includes badgeware licenses
(because such licenses still meet the 4 software freedoms), but they also do
