I know. :)
I'm not proposing any particular license with this. You know my own
personal opinions and I know yours, but I'm not posting as a PD
advocate here, nor with any ulterior motive.
What I'm trying to do is see what basic freedoms _everyone_ can agree
on. I'm guessing that it wouldn't satisfy you without a viral
condition: some people would disagree: we can thrash that out later.
We may even find our own, new viral licence that satisfies more people
than existing ones do. But this exercise is just to find a baseline
which we can then build on.
Do you disagree with any of the first nine?
cheers
Richard
