This license has been sitting around for over a month, and nobody has said anything. Maybe it's because it's obviously open source, but as committee members, I'd like to hear it explicitly from your mouths (or keyboards rather) to report back to the board.
It's actually a fairly interesting license. It's very like the modified BSD license in that you can do anything you want including relicense. Where it gets interesting is that if you publish changes and DON'T require a written license for your derivative work, you are granting a license back to the original licensor. This is a neat variant on the original APSL's intent of "If you deploy, you must publish and tell us." It says "If you publish without instructions to the contrary, we get a license." I think the FSF will consider this a free software license as well. Anyway, could I hear some discussion of it? http://crynwr.com/cgi-bin/ezmlm-cgi?3:mss:7072:200308:fcnekdmjcpiaemibokne -- --My blog is at angry-economist.russnelson.com | Can I recommend python?
