Dear folks:
At long last I went ahead and took Bradley Kuhn's suggestion to
reimplement TGPPL as an added permission on GPL. Richard Fontana has
been kind enough to submit a pull request.
Please review!

Kuhn) which would allow anyone to make a derived work
be GPL-licensed. That way anyone using TGPPLv2 would automatically have the
option of switching to GPL, and would not have the option (while still using
TGPPLv2) of preventing downstream users from switching to GPL.

So the effect of the Person A's use of TGPPL on Person B is completely
different from the old Aladdin Software policy.

Zooko,
It might be worth mentioning here that you and I have had discussions
for years about the idea of drafting TGPPL as a set of exceptions to
Affero GPLv3 and/or GPLv3.
I believe this is indeed possible, but requires
works.

approved licenses.
I'll dig some up. Added to my todo list.

There's
is if the let's not proliferate substantially
similar licenses reasoning should not also apply to the approval of the Fair

I will not presume to insist that OSI approve the Simple Permissive License.
