A prototype software license, which I +created 2 years ago, was submitted to the OSI mailing list to be +reviewed for approval. A GitHub user(rootls) uploaded the license on his +repository, without my contest. + +The submission mailing list post can be found at: + +https://lists.opensource.org/pipermail/license-review/2014-March/002084.html + +The unauthorized file can be found at: + +https://github.com/rootls/aksharlicense/blob/master/PSL-1.0.txt + +As mentioned above, the license has not been accepted from the OSI and +the Free Software Foundation for use at a software program.
