Hello IronPython community,

As you probably know IronPython has a long history of releasing our source code 
under permissive licenses.  Initially IronPython was released under a specific 
IronPython license which was quite similar to the Microsoft Public License 
(PS-Pl) we ship under today.  We occasionally hear feedback, questions and a 
general lack of familiarity from you about the license that we use.  And in 
several instances, we have been asked why we don't adopt a more popular 
license, such as the Apache 2.0 License.  We are therefore considering 
switching our license to a well known permissive license which is more commonly 
used by open source projects.  Currently we are considering the Apache License, 
Version 2.0.

We'd like to hear your feedback before we make any decisions.  Do you think 
adopting a more popular license, such as the Apache License, would be a good 
change for IronPython?
