This thread seems to be going on endlessly without much in the way of resolution.
Couldn't we add a line to the end of a license that says
Nothing in this license obviates any requirement that the
recipient comply with the laws of his or her host government.
Then we wouldn't need an Intel-type license, but Intel's lawyers could be happy, and the people of Cuba could write derivative works and e-mail them to North Korea or wherever.
