[Solar-general] Re: Licencia Artistic aprobada por OSI y Debian pero no por FSF

la estuve leyendo, y realmente que licencia chot*: mal escrita, y ni
las restricciones estan claras...

- "the right to use and distribute the Package in a more-or-less
customary fashion" ("mas o menos consuetudinario"??)
- "the right to make reasonable modifications" (cuales serian las
no-razonables?)
- "You may charge a reasonable copying fee for any distribution of
this Package" (que monto seria no-razonable??)

y asi mil cosas mas...
