That's not it. I am arguing that licensing should be as minimal as possible because that's in the interest of *users*. As an IPMC member who reviews releases from time to time, I'm one of those users. But I also participate in license evaluation for open source products we incorporate at my day job, and when we come across a 5k long train wreck of a license, it costs us time and money. +1 to this suggestion of yours from upthread: It's certainly a best practice to not put things in NOTICE that aren't actually required.
