For Approval: The netX Public Lisense (in plain text)

[Bruce Perens]

OK, I guess I'm wrong about sublicensing being required. But in that 
case we must make sure that the license allows the usual distribution 
chain without sublicensing.

Anyway, there are other reasons to reject this license.

     Thanks
