I'd prefer that the name of the 'improved' repackaged versions with
minor changes be based on DCC with a different suffix or prefix.
Fewer buzzwords and easier to evaluate.

I'm with Vern. Most of the alleged improvements are just breakage, and given what DCC does, it's really important the the versions interoperate correctly, which "improved' versions probably don't.

qmail has survived pretty well with a license saying essentially what you do, distribute my package, not modified versions. People who really want modified versions can distribute the original plus a patch kit, so it's clear what's changed.
