License Proliferation Dissatisfaction

[Chris DiBona]

I agree that cddl shouldn't have made the cut. But I wasn't part of
the committee. We made similar but not exact decisions when we created
the project hosting service here (yay #2!) And the only license we
actually have people clamor for is the epl. But even that is too
unpopular to warrant inclusion.
