The only thing I'll add is that I, as I said, I really don't care at all about licenses.
Then you have no room to complain or even suggest a specific license!
When it comes to licenses, to me (and, I suspect, the vast majority of other OSS users), "GPL" is "synonymous with "open source". Is that correct? No. Am I aware that plenty of other licenses exist? Yes. Is the issue important? Sure.
Agreed.
Do I have time or interest to worry about niggly little details? No.
Well the problem with licenses is that they are decidedly NOT niggly little details. You should consider re-evaluating what you have time or interest for, if you care about the things you say (such as maximum and flexible use of the products you are using).
All I want is to be able to use the best technology in the ways that are most useful to me without artificial restrictions. Anything that advances that, I'm for.
CDDL is close to that, much closer than GPL. -frank _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
