I remember that discussion about the original order, but I'm in the same boat as OP—this is the first I'm hearing about an RFC about open weights. It looks like it was discussed once, about a month ago [0], but I hadn't seen any of the public comments show up on HN until today, even though they date back weeks.

Exactly -- I remember the 'Executive Order on ...' headline now, but I never bothered to click on it, because why would I. The second story, I never noticed at all, and neither did anybody else.

One of the few cases where a bit more alarmism in the headline might not have been out of place.
