@drewdevault@fosstodon.org That does make sense. Maybe I will approach it this way next time.
(In the particular case of my ANTMAMA story, the organization did approve many non-OSI licenses, just the WTFPL wasn't one of them. It might actually just be that this was because the WTFPL is not legally sound. So the story's only relevant insofar as it makes me keenly aware "hm… if you create extra work for their legal department, you might wind up making the code unusable altogether")
