For me to consider the license free (for some personal meaning of the word), I'd like the clause made non-binding. Something like 'make a bona fide attempt to', or 'Apple strongly requests that'. As to what would satisfy the OSD - I'm not sure. IMO, the clause has to be made a request to satisfy the OSD. You obviously don't agree. I know that in the past we have ruled postcard-ware non-free (heck, we even got Zope to remove it's attribution clause, IIRC). I'm pretty sure there are some others who agree with me, but I'll go quiet now. I'm going on holiday tomorrow, anyhow :-) Jules /----------------+-------------------------------+---------------------\ | Jelibean aka | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | 6 Evelyn Rd | | Jules aka | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Richmond, Surrey | | Julian Bean | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | TW9 2TF *UK* | +----------------+-------------------------------+---------------------+ | War doesn't demonstrate who's right... just who's left. | | When privacy is outlawed... only the outlaws have privacy. | \----------------------------------------------------------------------/
