Yay!
Well, yes and no.
I think that Apache 2.0 is more restrictive than free-fork. I don't fully
understand Apache 2.0 myself.
Of course, GPL 2 is *much* more restrictive than either free-fork or
Apache, and the proposed GPL 3 is worth. It's sad that people are so
willing give up rights in order to be politically correct.
But, if the change of license eliminates the FUD and confusion, I guess
that it was a good thing.
*Sigh*. *Deep* sigh.

Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
