Oh and just wanted to confirm, as with Jeremy, I have not given any power up, I hold copyrights, I never signed copyrights away to Conservancy, I joined the alliance and voice my opinion to make sure to help voice my opinion in not only the last resort topics, but also even voice how things might work better for things currently up in the air. Case in point the ZFS crap, the permissive license actually makes sense there [0]. So yet -- more permissive license "agenda" and this coming from SFC! -- jeesh, how copyleft crazy this is, isn't it? These SFC permissive license zealots are just nuts. Crazy I tell you... So -- if you'd like to voice your opinion and give the conservancy a shot, please note you do not have to sign away copyrights to Conservancy -- so you can join, see we're civil and reach consensus amicably through the list and use fair judgement. Please consider joining the alliance if you want to voice you opinion. And -- you can always leave, you know -- if it turns out we're bat shit crazy.
