My responses in this thread have been in response to Peter Miller’s
clarifications for the brief brief of the requirements for the new
licence (and successive messages putting various points across).

I cannot comment on the new licence because I haven’t seen it.  I have
only the old draft to go on, but that’s a moot point because I was
commenting on the brief.

_I_ think this discussion is healthy, and will give people ideas on what
to look out for when the licence is released.
