Shaleh has also pointed out that the association with Blackbox is not very
benefic, so I will be rephrasing it using "window manager" instead.

I was forced to resort to this license eventually because it would make
third-party resources authors (such as wallpapers or skins) more cooperative
since they tend to be quite protective about their work.

This was never meant to be about Blackbox, it just so happens that I make
Blackbox styles. And anyway, I'm not really after inclusion in major distro's,
I just want a license that will make both me and the wallpaper authors
confortable.

I may have to run it by the Freshmeat team though. :)
