Personally I think the Microsoft Public License is a pretty good open
source license and I'm not sure the confusion of *another* license
change is worth it. My $0.02...
All the best,
Michael

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?
