Protip: Stop categorising people in a blurry way and making unsound general statements about those categories if you want your points to be understood.


A bunch of unwritten rules tend to lead to unpleasant situations. It is
important for a development community to align their attitudes to the
freedoms implied by the license.

AFAICS, the Boost license is just about opting out of possibly annoying defaults of copyright law. I see no reason to adopt an ideology over this.

A Boost license comes with a set of
freedoms that I would expect the community to back fully.

I.e. you expect 'the community' to hold restricted opinions?

Also: Where does the Boost licence say anything about discussing arbitrary derivative works on the official forums?

There is no good reason for having forum members adhere to a separate set of 
rules
where they have their freedom restricted.

How has your 'freedom' been 'restricted', if at all?

(BTW: freedom becomes a non-trivial concept as soon as more than one entity should be free.)
