But you know, when a troll award winner like this thread happens, noone can read all the posts and remember everything everyone says. Any concrete, raisonnable and constructed proposal is certainly three drinks behind now. I checked the licences to try getting back to concrete and divert the subject from the "Users want only free / Users don't care about licenses" scheme. To follow on the theme, I would say that since we have hundreds of licences of which only about 50 have been checked by the FSF and/or OSI, we could ask the FSF to pronounce on the others. Alternative could be to shoot dead anybody trying to publish yet another OSS license ;-) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
