[Approval Request] Kallisys Reflexive License

[Paul Guyot]

Hi Abe,

Thanks for that clever remark. For me, it was obviously included into 
a use of the covered work (since a big feature of open source is that 
you can use the source :), but I agree that it wasn't explicit enough 
(the mere fact that you asked proved it). So I clearly defined what I 
meant by using and reshaped section 4 accordingly. Thanks.

It's a misunderstanding, that's all, and I hope it's fixed.

I wonder why. Could you please develop, either regarding Draft 1 
(always interesting) or the newer Draft 2?

Thanks.

Paul
