|The amazing thing here is that the APL 1.1 license is one of the least

|LESS restrictive license. How can that be a bad thing?

jon,

True! it is not a "bad thing" and the APL is less restrictive.  GPL'ing the
kernel makes sense for us as we fight an uphill battle.  We put good code
and need exchange to grow... it is a "protect the young" kinda thing, the
"feedback" is feeding the group. Important for a baby.

When the field is stabilized then it is another story... do you understand
our position better?  Like I said let's work around the "clean tree policy"
for things your really want in your tree from us.  For the rest it's clear
on licenses in integration.

kind regards

marc
