We have also read much about license proliferation and the confusion a
|
|
person might feel when they see, on Freshmeat or somewhere else, a license
|
|
listed as "OPL." Is that with no clauses? One or both clauses? rms is right
|
|
in saying that we need different kinds of licenses for different kinds of
|
|
works... but I'm not sure if options are the way to achieve different
|
|
licenses. Therefore, I will make the following suggestion:
|
|
|
|
We should create three licenses which provide varying levels of freedom /
|
|
protection to the authors and publishers of documents.
|
|
|
|
I agree completely: the clear way to do this is with multiple license,
|
|
not with options within a license. I've been asking Ms Petrycki since
|
|
last summer to have separate licenses rather than options.
|
|
|
|
I want to comment on the new draft OPL too, but first I will wait to
|
|
give Ms Petrycki time to respond to a question I sent asking for
|
|
clarification of certain points.
