VOTE: Legacy Approval: Zope Public License v2.1 (Pam) 5 minutes
https://docs.google.com/document/d/13ruFyk_hCUAkEEupbT8pTLe-nuQPpLZcH70U13-wuuM/edit
This is now a reusable license and the old one is deprecated
Chris moves that it is the opinion of the OSI that the Zope Public License (ZPL) Version 2.1 conforms to the OSD and assures software freedom and that the license be approved as an Open Source Initiative Certified license in the category of Licenses That Are Redundant With More Popular Licenses. Further, the Zope Public License Version 2.0 will be moved to the Superseded Licenses category.
Pam seconds
Motion unanimously carried.
VOTE: Ritchey Permissive License v11 (Pam) 5 minutes
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Ib_7QUqv-ehFdV2HZZkWMjRm7sJimuz04txfn2DkI6I/edit
Deb moves, Resolved that it is the opinion of the OSI that the Ritchey Permissive License v11 does not conform to the OSD and assure software freedom and the license is therefore not approved as an Open Source Initiative Certified license.
