Nice discussion all around, and I like how the GPL-2 emerged as a
consensus. It's been my default license for 20-some years too.

But I think are not adding anyting new at this point (beyond maybe being new
to Soren and Carlo).  There are _many_ places on the internet more focussed
on this topic.  Maybe the discussion could move there?
