at some point Alan proposed Academic (probably because AFL was a hot
topic in april, proposed also in some other projects, i believe because
the topic of software patents was also hot at that time):
"Rather than public domain I would think that a license more like the
Academic Free License that retains copyright (and I think copyright
should be pooled and given to a group like freedesktop.org) and
explicity disclaimes liability might be better."
