Don't fake me out, dude. Those came before the APSL, and were for the most
part ARPA-funded and under the BSD license.

All of the action reported here is people porting your code away from

No, actually I'd rather they use a straight GPL so that they get _all_
of the code back, as does everybody else. But I'm willing to compromise
if they won't do that.
