I've attached a version of our license in your format that includes the dated (versioned) URI of the license and validates (and removes all the crufty font stuff) -- the present version is invalid HTML [1]. Thank you.

On your copy, would you please provide a hypertextual reference to: http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/copyright-software-19980720 We don't use version numbers but dated URLs to specify the version of the license. For example, http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/copyright-software-19980519.html wasn't GPL compatible. If we were to create a new version (I don't forsee this) I would resubmit the new license. (Obviously, we wouldn't intend to make it incompatible with GPL or OSD but I wouldn't presume approval.) ------------------------------------------------------- -- Joseph Reagle Jr. http://www.w3.org/People/Reagle/ W3C Policy Analyst mailto:reagle@w3.org IETF/W3C XML-Signature Co-Chair http://www.w3.org/Signature/ W3C XML Encryption Chair http://www.w3.org/Encryption/2001/
