Has any effort gone into getting Open Source Initiative to recognise
and approve this new license?

Talking about patents? I mean the whole goal for me using it is “I
give everybody my code; what you do with it I don’t care”

If you care about patents and what it will be used for in the future
then re-license it. Which you can do.

Also “30 day excuse” no. I don’t care, I give you code, I don’t care
about that.

Can’t revoke the license? Does that mean we can’t re-license it like
the BSD/MIT then?

Smells like a bunch of FUD plus a bunch of shilling for this "Blue
Oaks" license of which I hadn't heard a thing about.

FUD and shilling for a random license nobody has heard of.

The writer is part of the advertised licence board.

As he states.

How is explicitly saying that you are advocating for something
"shilling"? What do you think a shill is?
