All,

This has taken far too long, but this morning I posted the next round of 
proposed revisions to the EPL.

You can find the new version on GitHub here 
<https://github.com/mmilinkov/EPL/blob/master/epl.html>, HTML preview 
here 
<https://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://github.com/mmilinkov/EPL/blob/master/epl.html>, 
with the changes shown here 
<https://github.com/mmilinkov/EPL/commit/d5ce8ae5a0f9377e25db8fa4d15128a1d5500918>.

For those who prefer, please find attached a PDF with the redlines.

The main revisions were as follows:

  * changed the defined term from "Derivative Work" to "Modified Work"
    to make it clearer that it is a defined term.
  * added definitions for Source Code and Executable Code.
  * changed the definition of Modified Work to (hopefully) be more precise.

I look forward to your feedback. In particular, defining derivative 
works is a big change. We definitely want to make sure we get that right.

Thanks in advance.
