Thats how I feel.  Take POI, for instance, we don't want most things that
*could* be donated.  For example: say you write an office suite in Java... 
Cool, feel free to opensource it, but its way outside project scope..  We'll
fully support your efforts and mention you "poi/inthenews.html", but I sure
do hate doing GUI stuff ;-).  Next, anyone who's logic is flawed enough to
NOT want to donate their code back into the tree (so that it can be done
once and not thrice when you upgrade to the next release) -- we really
wouldn't want it (it would likely suffer from the same illogic)...

I'm just saying I object to the title ASL vs GPL etc..  The manual links to
a page I think is sufficient.  I think it should link to the o'reilly page
too because its very comprehensive and reasonably objective.  I object to
the idea that you MUST use GPL to get code donations...  *shrugs* but maybe
thats just me.
