The one part I don't think we can simply leave
open is what happens to existing sublicensed uses when XSF-US is dissolved (as not all
uses are strictly historic/now defunct). Jonas has raised this, and it's the thing
I'd most want to get right. I'd like to hear from current holders on how they
would prefer it be handled before settling on any particular process. Some form of clarity
for them before the US entity winds down feels like a duty we have regardless of how we
read the paperwork.
I can ask about this on the open-source foundations list - we might not be the first
organization to face this issue and in any case we could find legal counsel who could
advise us.
