[Maxis Confidential] unsubsribe From: License-discuss [mailto:license-discuss-boun...@lists.opensource.org] On Behalf Of Gil Yehuda Sent: Thursday, September 12, 2019 11:53 PM To: license-discuss@lists.opensource.org Subject: Re: [License-discuss] [License-review] Coherent Open Source - Getting underway next Friday
Thorsten, Forgive me, I meant not to describe the individual motivators of everyone in software as being only one of three. Rather to summarize the FSF's movement philosophy, as they describe it. As well as capture the essential value proposition that cause the open source movement to branch from it. However, your need to assert that as an individual, you place yourself in yet another category that was not properly captured in my high-level summary is a great signal to Bruce that his plans will face exactly these headwinds.

I’d count myself in the “Free” camp, I don’t care about crowds or crowdsourcing, I’m hacking mostly for myself, (and a bit to make the world a better place), and I just see the copyleft bits as added _restrictions_ that are annoying and make things less free. Please also consider http://copyfree.org/standard by apotheon, which gets rather close to my personal preferences (even if I accept other things that are not compliant), as food for thought. And my signature, of course. bye, //mirabilos -- I believe no one can invent an algorithm. One just happens to hit upon it when God enlightens him. Or only God invents algorithms, we merely copy them. If you don't believe in God, just consider God as Nature if you won't deny existence. -- Coywolf Qi Hunt _______________________________________________ License-discuss mailing list License-discuss@lists.opensource.org<mailto:License-discuss@lists.opensource.org> http://lists.opensource.org/mailman/listinfo/license-discuss_lists.opensource.org This e-mail contains confidential information.
