No. I've already done that and you didn't reply. Why should I repeat
myself with zero expectation of a substantive reply? EVERY point except
#6 conflicts with the OSD. The intention of the Ethical Software
Definition conflicts with the Open Source Definition. Open Source allows
all use by a copyright. Ethical Software denies some uses by social shaming.
And don't you DARE call it "Ethical Open Source"! It's either Open
Source OR it's "Ethical" (by your definition, on case by case or time
after time).
