I also think so about objectivity. But you can overract. For example, i could get mad and see it as my "field of endeavor" to release any source code to public domain, even those not from me. Or I wnat to break any software-licence I cen get. So the GPL would be non-free, as it discrimated against my Fields of Endavor. So, I think there has to be some resonablity. And Thus I think Ananalog does not violate "No Discrimination Against Fields of Endeavor". But I have been convinced that this passus is bad, as it is very nasty to punish those how brake the law by removing their right to use the software. (Which keeps beeing true where the software is used to break the law.) So I think Analog is non-free, as it violates "No Discrimination Against Persons or Groups". (As the group of persons breaking law is a group of persons) Hochachtungsvoll, Bernhard R. Link
