How will the licensing issue (forks of the dmd backend are only allowed with your permission) be solved?

It shouldn't be a problem as long as those forks are for the purpose of developing patches to the main branch, as is done now in svn. I view it like people downloading the source from digitalmars.com.

Using the back end to develop a separate compiler, or set oneself up as a distributor of dmd, incorporate it into some other product, etc., please ask for permission.

Basically, anyone using it has to agree not to sue Symantec or Digital Mars, and conform to:
