What you say is a gross > misrepresentation of the actual implications of the terms. Yes, the rights are not equal, but often, the contributions are not equal either. I have written 100% of the code of opam-builder, so why shall I give you the same rights on my code, just because you might eventually contribute 10 lines ? Are you the one who will maintain the full code over time, fix bugs in the lines you added, make them evolve, and so on ? You want the same rights, but without the same duties. > Please stop thinking we are idiots.

We changed the license in your sense instead of introducing a CLA because you convinced everybody it was needed to increase the number of contributions. Looking at the git logs in github.com/ocaml/opam, the number of contributions have actually decreased since the license went more liberal... --Fabrice
