Here's the thing: a BDFL, to retain his authority, must be careful not to make arbitrary decisions based on his personal feelings. So when SteveC says that he's against public domain, I trust that he's speaking for the project, not himself. Yes, I realize that thare are wingnuts who are in favor of the public domain, being one myself. -- --my blog is at http://blog.russnelson.com Crynwr supports open source software 521 Pleasant Valley Rd. | +1 315-600-8815 Potsdam, NY 13676-3213 | Sheepdog _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
