[TriLUG] [OT] Common Public Attribution License / Open Source Initiative

[Phillip Rhodes]

Just out of curiosity... is anybody else here following the
controversy (
<http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/07/27/osi_fury_badgerware/>) over the
CPAL at all?  Does anybody else think that
it's a bad license that should not be OSI approved as an Open Source
license?

And on a related note... is anybody else concerned about how the OSI
is such a closed organization, with no real notion of representation or
accountability?  From looking at this page:
<http://opensource.org/membership> it appears there has been some noise
about changing the structure of the organization, but it doesn't
look like much has come of it.



TTYL,


Phil
