That group full of both proprietary business interests who enjoy astroturfing and a few people who genuinely want to do good?
I don't believe they have a recommended list of licenses, although an internet search reveals they have published one license know as the "EFF Open Audio License", but that's only for music and not software.
It appears we have another "open source" supporter who has never heard of the "open source definition"; https://opensource.org/osd/ (yes, the page is MiTM'd by google and it's full of proprietary JavaScript).
I prefer the original and the best myself; https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.en.html#four-freedoms
Although the "OSI" has approved the LGPLv2.1 and GPLv2 as meeting the 10 requirements, they've been painstakingly handcrafted by rms and many others to be free software licenses and I would argue that applying a 3rd party certification by a corporate-controlled front onto free software under free software licenses is one of the greatest insults one could carry out.
