+# 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://electriccoin.co/blog/introducing-tgppl-a-radically-new-type-of-open-source-license/
+
+      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.
