Thank you both for being so concerned about my personal license 
preference. Contrary to what John seems to believe, I would be quite 
content with the new license - not exactly "in love with it", but 
"content" is a good word I think. - As for the contributor terms, some 
parts of them are necessary and some are not necessary but prudent, 
among them the much-discussed clause 3; only the most presumptuous 
person would believe that a license they choose today will automatically 
be the best license for the project for all time.

Bye
Frederik
