Keep in mind that the OP asked why some folks favor A over B. And license X vs. license Y is a perfectly valid response. There is no judgment in the licenses themselves, just *why* one is prefererred *by someone* for a *specific application*. I think this discussion is valid and allowed for this mailing-list, where like-minded people are subscribed. _______________________________________________ Soekris-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech
