I don't think that makes any sense. You should make positive
assertions about data, not negative ones...

Why?

Andy is in fact trying to make a negative assertion, of the "license" token.

and why bother with a
"not-a-license" schema? There's far too many negatives... as in
licenses that it wouldn't be....

Andy might want to name one (or a few) specific licenses that it is not.

I think we ought only deal with what things *are* and not what they *aren't*.

That's fine, but they you need to put the "negative" into the token...
as in "nolicense" or something like that.


See ya
