Argent, now that you mention GPLv3, it's worth pointing out that if LL
relicensed their sources to GPLv3 then they would be prevented from suing
GPL developers for patent infringement (under fear of loss of GPL rights),
because of GPLv3's patent retaliation clause.  That would remove one source
of worry that projects like Opensim currently believe they have.


Morgaine.
