Open Source Hardware (OSHW) definition 0.3

[Shakthi Kannan]

Hi,

Can you please let me know if the Open Source Hardware (OSHW) [1]
definition 0.3 is an acceptable license for Fedora?

Version 1.0 is to be released at the Open Hardware Summit [2] at New
York City on September 23, 2010.

Thanks,

SK

It's not a license, but a set of criteria (including licensing norms
for distribution of hardware, software and documentation) for
determining whether something can legitimately be called "Open Source
Hardware". It's like the OSI's Open Source Definition, on which it is
closely modeled.
