So (unlike the BSD license) I can't do an 'embrace and extend' on Clojure without releasing my changes back to the community. The CPL also has specific wording to deal with patents, so someone can't add a bunch of patented code (either accidentally or deliberately) and later demand royalties for using the patented stuff.
