Could you please specify wherein the Plan 9 license fails of Open
Sourceness in its current incarnation? The complaints of RMS at
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/plan-nine.html seem to apply with equal
force to the Perl license (which he calls unFree) and the OSL 1.0,
with the exception of the termination-on-any-IP-lawsuit provision.
I assume that the Lucida fonts could be treated as severable.
