Hi SPDX Legal Team,

I have added the new license request to our request tracking gsheet:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11AKxLBoN_VXM32OmDTk2hKeYExKzsnPjAVM7rLstQ8s/edit?pli=1#gid=695212681

Coming up with a License Full Name and a License Short Identifier promises
to be somewhat challenging.

Regards,
Dennis Clark
nexB Inc.
