As I explained earlier, OSD #2 is about open source software, not about
open source licenses.  A license is open source if it complies with #1
and #3-10.  Software is open source if it complies with #2 and is licensed
under an open source license.

Is a chair finely made tragic or comic? Is the          John Cowan
portrait of Mona Lisa good if I desire to see           cowan at ccil.org
it? Is the bust of Sir Philip Crampton lyrical,         http://ccil.org/~cowan
epical or dramatic?  If a man hacking in fury
at a block of wood make there an image of a cow,
is that image a work of art? If not, why not?               --Stephen Dedalus
