As with its original BitLicense proposal, DFS will accept comments, but only for thirty days in this round. At the expiration of those thirty days, DFS will likely prepare a final version and then publish it in the state Register. DFS extended the last comment period in response to industry outcries for more time. I doubt that there will be an extension granted, so if you plan to file a comment, it should be done quickly.
Who should file a comment? Altcoin developers might want the final rule to more clearly define what it means to administer a digital currency. Multisig developers might ask for a clearer definition of custody, controlling or holding. They might even argue for a specific exemption.

I don't know what kind of clarification you're looking for. I don't have any comment to make on that article or BitLicense. (Obviously, we don't administer XCP or any other currency.)
