legal.......

Stephen (or Jonathan and Rich via Stephen), what are the problems you're

I think it's difficult to evaluate such a proposal without the
context of
"why are we doing this?" and will result in a load of unfocused
discussion,
which is what I think we're seeing so far.
I also think it would be helpful if there was an explanation of the
legal consequences of such a dual-licensing approach, for example is
the concern (expressed by several people) that one of the licenses
could be "ripped out" well-founded or not?
