Re: Submission of PFSSL v1.0 for OSI Review and Approval

Hello Josh,

The license isn=E2=80=99t directly based on any single one, but most of its=
 clauses are inspired by well-known licenses such as MIT, MPL, GPL, and Apa=
che. I also aimed to make the language user-friendly and accessible, so use=
rs can read the license directly and understand their rights clearly, witho=
ut relying on summaries.


Best regards,
Rafael Senties Martinelli

What existing license text is this based on?  A lot of it looks fairly=20
familiar.
