Steve leans strongly towards permissive licensing, of the MIT-ish
flavour.  

Copyright violation is actually possible under permissive licences, too:
The obvious way is to wrongfully remove another contributor's copyright 
notice from incumbent source code -- as a judge found AT&T Bell Labs to
have done in his preliminary ruling in the AT&T v. UC Regents lawsuit 
(the BSD lawsuit), just before the case was quietly settled.  But
they're rare, because you have to be kind of a colossal idiot to violate
them.
