    Ah, I see, this was already discussed (to OK) but only on discord and
    I've not udpated #4580 accordingly. So let's wait for clear
    confirmation
    then.


I think it's ok.

There was some discussion (or confusion) long ago that it required you to
keep a track of which changes to that source were by who. I don't see that
in the license at all. IMO it's just another variant on MIT/BSD with more
detail.

It gives you a patent grant for the work.

For source code redistribution it contains this condition:

"(b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices stating that You changed the files;"

This means everyone changing the files need to pay attention to this.
