Back in 2015, the OpenSSL project announced itsintent to move away from its rather quirky license. Now it has announcedthat thechange is moving forward. "After careful review, consultationwith other projects, and input from the Core Infrastructure Initiative andlegal counsel from the SFLC, the OpenSSL team decided to relicense the codeunder the widely-used ASLv2." It is worth noting that this changeand the way it is being pursued are not universally popular, in the OpenBSD camp, at least.
