It's a noble goal, some thoughts on the license.

I really wish it made clear that the license was irrevocable. I think the understanding in the community is that once you give permission for software to be used under a license you shouldn't go back on that, but other licenses, like Apache, make that clear.

The phrase "Any modification to the software submitted to the authors may be incorporated into the software under the terms of this license." could be worded better. I think Apache nails this, "Unless You explicitly state otherwise, any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of this License, without any additional terms or conditions". This gives some wiggle room for submissions under different license, if they are explicitly called out.

Thanks for the thoughts. I considered those two issues in the drafting — revocability, and contributor submission licensing — but they can certainly be discussed further.

Do you mind opening a ticket on the Github repo to discuss them? (If you don't have time, I might do it.)

Yeah no problem
