It would be great if you could help us understand why Apache (which is,
in legal effect, BSD with a patent clause) is unacceptable to that
community.

My understanding was that the web dev team were keen on non-copyleft
licensing, which the licensing policy didn't allow; formally enabling
that was what this discussion was all about. If that's not the point you
were making, then there's been some miscommunication.

I did my best to get people involved in the discussion, including a
specific email written to the webdev list to come and get involved. If
webdevs aren't reading the webdev list, then could I politely suggest
their community engagement needs a little polishing?
