[License-review] Submission of license "MAPOD4D" for approval

[Simon Phipps]

Thanks for submitting your license for approval. I would recommend OSI NOT
to approve this as an open source license for the following OSD-breaching
reasons:

Section 6: (also in other sections)
* Prohibition of charging any fee at all
* Denies the right to apply another license, effectively prohibiting
incorporation of portions of the code in a larger work under an otherwise
compatible license apart from as authorised in section 14.

Section 13:
Denies "other rights" implying rights necessary for a developer or user to
enjoy the work such as patent rights are not licensed.

Section 17:
Outright forbids TPMs.

There are other issues too but the above appear disqualifying.

Cheers

Simon
