Instinctively, this seems a reasonable test to apply to a license. Can anyone think of any currently-accepted-as-DFSG-free licenses that would fail this test? If not, I propose we consider adding this to our battery of tests; maybe we could call it the "Towns Test", which is nicely alliterative. :) -- G.
