Just curious, how would you phrase a license that did not hinder compatibility yet still prevented someone from modifying the program and releasing it under non-free terms? (We just saw an example of what to fear with BIND: its BSD license allowed modifications under more restrictive licensing conditions, so the upstream maintainers are now putting out the new version under a non-free copyright). -- Henning Makholm
