Well, I'm not going to tell anyone not to discuss or ask questions.
But I think your chances of getting a new license “blessed by the FSF”
are vanishingly small.
These companies that want license terms already had the opportunity to
get a blessed-by-the-FSF license: the GPLv3, which was the result of
unprecedented input and discussion from the entire software community.
I would expect you will have better results encouraging companies to
use those well-understood license terms.
