The so-called "Commons Clause" license(promoted by Kevin Wang), as Drew
Devault reads it, could mean the end of open source software. He seems to
be making a good point. I'm not sufficiently knowledgeable about licensing
to fully understand the implications of the "Commons Clause" license, but
on first read it's a pretty drastic departure from classic open source
licensing. Neither seems to be aware of p2p efforts in peer production,
etc. licensing. Could any of you working on licensing frameworks pick this
up?
