I realize that our critera are different (Debian's are much more
specific, for example). However, other than on the Artistic license
(about which I brought up a number of questions), does the FSF
analysis differ from the Debian analysis on any other licenses? Did
we accept the APSL (the other major point of divergence between the
OSI and the FSF)?
