He has his reasons for not wanting to use an OSI-approved license. In his words, > I am nervous of the GPL, and its cognates. Not because I dislike > the principle of thing, or do not share the generally egalitarian > outlook - but because I want to keep the definition of the language > stable. I therefore don't want to give people the right to create > derivative works. All the other rights are fine - open source, > compile it yourself, distribute it yourself, no fees or patents, > use it even commercially without permission, sure. I just don't > want Inform to be like awk, with no copy of awk compatible > with any other on points of detail. I can understand where he's coming from on this and I'm not convinced I want to change his mind. I'm going to go ahead and let the issue drop. I appreciate the attention from both Jason and Hans. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
