Yeah :).. I know. This is why we took it to the side for a while.
I think I can make a logical case for this... politics aside. The major
philiosophy within the ASF is that we should give people the freedom to use our
code anyway they want. IE to *truly* Open the code. The only problem with this
is that the GPL side can't work with our code base at all. That includes the
work I do with the GNU Java Compiler, etc.
I think it is worth while to make the argument that as long as it is *either*
GPL or APL the license can still be under Apache. Why??? You can still use
the APL as much as you want... the only thing we are allowing is that now the
GPL camp can use our software.
