Thanks, Kyle, your revisions have addressed most of my concerns. As
such I'd like to refine this further to make it actually enforceable.

Some questions for you:
- What event is the time limit measured from?
- How do you picture the time limit being enforced? If a licensor
encounters potential infringement, how will he or she know how long the
infringing code has been in use/distributed/built?
Questions for the licensing committee:
- Do we have any precedent for a license with a time limit? I can't
recall one.
- Is the language ""Open Source" as defined by the Open Source
Initiative" adequate?
