Bruce,
If you change the license your going to have some issues.
1 - Who's going to take care of the license violations. LFS is a volunteer
organization who's going to have the time to pursue this legally.
2 - You have people working on CLFS/LFS/HLFS that have commercial ties,
you may
loose people like Ryan and myself due to the license change.
3 - Build techniques for a Linux system are documented everywhere, we
could be
violating someone else's license.
4 - What about current distro's who have based themselves on LFS, how
would this
affect them.
