Success](https://s.apache.org/GhnI):
+
+> To allow us to deliver on this part of the mission, it is critical that we
adopt a
+> license that uses the law to protect the software curated here at the
Foundation.
+> For us that license is the [Apache License, Version
2](https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html).
+> In addition, we adopt an [inbound licensing
policy](https://apache.org/legal/resolved.html)
+> that defines which licenses are allowable on software reused within Apache
projects. This policy can be summarized as:
+>
+> * The license must meet the [Open Source Definition
(OSD)](https://opensource.org/osd).
+> * The license, as applied in practice, must not impose significant
restrictions beyond those imposed by the Apache License 2.0.
