@tommaitland, @chrisjensen,
I have a Medium account that I can use to get the word out. I would like to ask fior your permission to write about the license and inform others. If so, Medium will do the rest from there.
Hold on, now that I think about it, I don't think the license is ready to be used. I did some hedge trimming in PR #79 to make the license easier to read and write, but I am waiting for a review from the core team, and many other issues/PRs have not been closed/merged. I would recommend waiting until the license gets reviewed by a legal expert and reaches 1.0.
If this is to be a license for a just world, then it should be developed in consultation with all the people who's lives we hope to improve through the use of the licence.
We should invite developers (or even non-developers) from other groups to review and contribute to the license, especially to ensure that we don't inadvertently create unintended consequences that harm minority groups.
I invite you to share the NoHarm license with any such groups, or others that would similarly help make the license more inclusive of those we seek to help.
