Hi, The libpng tip of tree has been very stable, and I consider it ready to go public. I have not incorporated all of the changes submitted or requested (e.g. on GitHub), but there should be room for those, in v1.6.37 or later. This is the first-ever libpng to ship with license v2. See the commit e79085a172 (currently, the top commit). I discussed the license with the people at OSI. There are no changes to the license text since I had originally started the discussion, although I was given some highly useful information. There may be a formal OSI review, but only after having the license legally reviewed outside OSI. Meanwhile, if everything goes well, we should have an official libpng-1.6.36 release, within a week or so. Sincerely, Cosmin
