Draft v.0.0.6 is out, introducing significant changes in the section “What is open source AI”:

- added, “Precondition to exercise these freedoms is to have access to the preferred form to make modifications to the system.” With an example of what this looks like for a machine learning system
- the checklist to evaluate legal documents separates the required component from the optional ones. They reflect the[results of the working groups](https://discuss.opensource.org/t/report-on-working-group-recommendations/247#)
- Minor change in wording from “license” to “legal document”.

The preamble is left untouched, more discussion seems to be needed.
