<p>Hi,</p>
<p>Rational principle: because free softeware license authors do not want license fragmentation. </p>
<p>And because I read Nicolas' post here that upholds that community norm.</p>
<p>I give a hoot, because if I am mistaken, that would have interesting implications for my work :-)</p>
<p>Regards, Dave</p>

How do you know this?<br>
<br>
I haven't been following too closely, but since there is still a<br>
dispute I imagine that no one has asked whether permission was given<br>
or whether anyone gives a hoot.<br>
