It seems clear to me that Wine is just like Unix: some people prefer a BSD license, and others prefer a GPL license.
BSD can never convince Linux people to switch licenses, and vice versa. So be it. Rather than endlessly debate the issues, I suggest we simply agree on an amicable parting of ways. The current cvs tree and patch mailing lists would remain as is. A new LGPL-licensed tree and associated wine-lgpl-patches mailing list would be created to accept LGPL-licensed patches. This would put an end to a lot of bickering, and would let us see how the two license agreements work out in practice. Comments? - Dan
