Indeed if someone could distill the discussion, I am all in favor of
having it documented in IFOSSLR (speaking as a member of the Editorial
Committee of it). I found the discussion very interesting, although I
have not had time to read each and any messages. The reference to the
MXM license I submitted for approval some months ago did not escape me,
though. ;-)

With best regards,
