[License-discuss] OSI is not a trade association

[Christine Hall]

On second thought, it's not the enterprise, or enterprise users, who 
want restrictive licenses. It's vendors/developers seeking enterprise 
customers who want to continue calling their software open source, but 
be able to use non open source restrictions because their business plan 
doesn't work.
