Apache has been a mature project for quite some time, what you should be asking instead is why did others go for GPL for their httpd. In any case this sort of clause is most common with projects like google map maker, In fact until recently this was a reason used to promote OSM, the fact that it didn't use the same terms as google map maker. _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
