> Yes, on its own. It's a group. Show me the group then. What/who does it contain that is not either an officer, shareholder, subsidiary company, customer, client or representative officer. When you strike out a company, nobody ceases to exist, it's just the legal entity. That ought to tell you all you need to know about what a corporation is.
> You intend to discriminate Not against any human beings, which is what that section must surely be all about. There is ZERO discrimination against anyone. > we intend for you to not discriminate. Stop. End of sentence. This sounds a bit like an overreach to me. > You're done. Your ship has sunk, your bird has flown, your toast has popped, your souffle has fallen. Lol. Yet my humanity is still very much intact. > Your license is not compatible with the Open Source Definition BY DESIGN. Nope. Not by design. I can tell you I had not considered OSI compliance at all, not one bit. I was surprised to learn it fits the definition though. I have no feelings in this game at all. This is not my problem, it's a problem for the OSI I think. > There's really no possible interpretation whereby your discrimination becomes one we would allow. Okay, so you might want to come out from behind the OSD then? > We don't WANT to discriminate, even against "bad" people. ...and how's that working out? I might be a bad person by your reckoning, that would be ironic - but let's read the license text and then read the OSD and you tell me you are not discriminating against the person, (by assuming my intentions - which - by the way - I can tell you are wrong assumptions) rather than the actual license. > You DO want to discriminate. Generally I find it useful, yes to discriminate between robust arguments and bigotry for example but hey, I am sure this discussion is not about anyone here. > The whole point behind Open Source is the same point behind Free Software The FSF would not agree with you, if that even matters to you. It probably doesn't. > If you don't want your software to be free for anyone to use, then you aren't distributing Free Software as a concept, and aren't distributing Open Source as a brand. Anyone can use leftcopy.org. Anyone at all. Company directors, employees, shareholders, anyone at all. There is no discrimination. It's a permissive license and you just have to come to terms with that. I have. _______________________________________________ The opinions expressed in this email are those of the sender and not necessarily those of the Open Source Initiative.
