look, that is not the point.
the point is that more and more free software is slowly getting unfree,
more restrictive, etc, and that is not something we should just
passively watch.
please have a look at the new apache license.
it is not really parsable without consulting a lawyer, and as this
license seems to go into the contract law land, the lawyers answer
migth very well be a differing depending on in which country you are.
so don't let us just watch a former-bsd-licensed projet fuck up their
licensing beyong all recognition, raise your voice. and do that on
license@apache.org so it is heard.
