2023-10-30: Seth/Karl meet and discuss next steps

• For each project mentioned in notes.md, make sure that we have the date (or rough time period) and a basic idea of what happened with that project.

• For any license that looks open source to us but is not OSI-approved, find out if it was submitted to license-review@ and/or to license-discuss@, and what the result was. These may be long threads; we will need to summarize.

  Examples of these might include:

  • "Bootstrap Open Source License" (BOSL). NOTE: this is NOT RELATED to the Bootstrap open source project at getbootstrap.com! Instead, see

    https://notes.andymatuschak.org/zVYtYLQkMVEV4zR9SF8i25k

  • "Transitive Grace Period Public License" (TGPPL): This is really the same as the BOSL above -- BOSL is just a rename of TGPPL. (And Ted T'so proposed "TPL" before this.)

• Decide if we're using an "eras" approach, and, if we are, decide what the eras are.
