As much as I dislike(d) the ongoing discussion about the TPVP, I DO
love this suggestion
Laughter (and sillyness) is alwa the best answer to any problem -
thanks for suggesting this

A few people have made the rather extraordinary suggestion that the
TPV is "OK" because the intent is good, no matter how dreadful its
wording. They ignore the fact that what matters in court is the
actual wording. It is the words that a user must agree to, not the
intent.
Faced with the silliness of "intent" as a mitigating factor, perhaps
what is needed is an equally silly response:
Let's write a new document that expresses the intent of LL's TPV,
but written cleanly and without any overreaching clauses. Let's
call that new document the TPV Intended Policy Document, or IPD for
short.
Modify the GPL viewer (which you have a license to do without
further restrictions, a freedom that was granted to you by LL) in
such a way that, on detecting the incoming Linden TPV Policy
document, it presents you with the IPD instead. Click on the Agree
button if you agree with the intent of the TPV, and TAKE A SCREEN
SHOT OF IT, just in case.
Go back to doing something useful with your time.
I hope we don't need to descend to this level of comedy. The TPV
should state what is intended, not something totally different.
I recommend that we use tomorrow's meeting with Joe to affirm this.
Morgaine.
