Please add a few words about copyleft and non-copyleft licenses. Both are Free (as in freedom) licenses. Also, please do put in place why you should use strong copyleft licenses. (of course, this is a matter of choice - some people, like *BSD developers, do not like copyleft licenses). -- Mahesh T.
