Dual licensing

No troll. I just said that to link to a previous point of mine, namely 
that dual-licensing requires a "reciprocal" license.

[Technically, viral = reciprocal. This has been discussed before. The 
difference is merely of perspective. Naturally license authors and 
grantors prefer the positively connoted "reciprocal". Naturally users 
that find themselves restricted in some way by a reciprocal license 
(e.g. dual-licensing costumers) will understand and use the term "viral" 
better. And when discussing that perspective it's correct to use it too. 
But I see this has a potential of being misunderstood as a provocation 
of some kind in this list, so I'll try to remember that and avoid it and 
save us all some time.]
