This is obviously an issue that needs tackling (and has been
coming for quite a long while now) to the extend that we are
seeing several companies try to hack up their own solution. But
the days of companies one-offing their own FOSS licenses behind
close doors are past (good riddance!) and a proper solution to
such a big issue needs to be drafted with a much wider set of
stakeholders taken into account, preferably in public.
