Dittoes. Although it may have seemed that I was in favor of some of
these licenses, I did not actually consider them fair. Businesses
want legal licenses while users want fair licenses. And if a license
meets the OSD but still manages to fall through the cracks so that it
is not free either, then this should be brought up as well.
