In a worker cooperative, there is one-person-one-vote democracy. So I cannot just dictate that the Software Licensing we use will be GPL. If all other members say Proprietary is better, I would have to go along with that decision.
Arguments for Proprietary Software might be that we live in a Capitalist system and even the cooperatives cannot escape the economic reality that forces their hand. I might still argue that we should 'voluntarily' use Libre-licensing such as GPL (but again I would only have one vote 😅) This is what I meant 😄 > On Jul 13, 2021, at 06:13, jahoti <jah...@envs.net> wrote: > >  > >> On 7/12/21 8:29 PM, Yasuaki Kudo wrote: >> 'Voluntarily' , as in this: >> http://dklevine.com/papers/ip.ch.2.m1004.pdf >> Meaning, I would prefer something like GPL citing the benefits described in >> the link 😄 > > I'm still not quite sure I understand, sorry.
