Actually now that I think about it, I'd love pay for ring side seats to see the outcome of such "flexibility" if linux kernel contributors were made to agree to such a contract before they could upload code, so the project might have "flexibility" if contributors in future thought some other license would be better for the project and well GPL v BSD arguments of the past would look like a friendly get together. _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
