I can't vouch for that. It was the first thing I thought of when I |
19 |
saw the email. If it isn't valid then we could of course ask for a |
20 |
new one if there is interest. I'm not sure if their policy toward |
21 |
such things has changed, but I believe in the past they would |
22 |
generally give a URL-locked license to FOSS orgs on request. |
