This is a problem.
The GPL is a very popular open source license. If a language does not permit
developers to use the GPL, that language may be severely reducing the number
of developers willing to adopt it.
It would be desirable for clojure.lang and clojure.core to use a modified
license, somethi

Another option Rich could consider for Clojure is the Mozilla tri-license
(GPL/LGPL/MPL).

The tri-license would remove any lingering ambiguity about building GPLed
Clojure projects.
But actually I believe the status quo is already quite per

What the "USEINANOTHER" url link states (as far as I understand) is for
