Hello curl reviewer,
I would like to have the curl license listed with the Open Source
Initiative (OSI) (opensource.org).
After going through the approval process, the curl license will be
considered an OSI Approved License.
The OSI will thus confirm that it is an open source license.
I have already initiated initial contact with the Review Committee,
received feedback and now need a
little support from the curl side. There are two points I would like to
raise here.
The first point is permission to have the curl license officially listed
at Open Source Initiative (OSI).
Can someone grant me official permission?
I would like to address the second point here based on the feedback from
my initial contact with the OSI.
The curl project itself refers to the SPDX listing, where curl is listed
as a standalone license.
The curl website states that there are similarities with the MIT
license, but the exact reasons for the change
are no longer clear. For this reason, I would like to ask whether there
are plans to change the license to a full MIT license.
Best regards
Chris
