I also cast my vote with Crispin and Sandy to exclude the new licensing language. This is changing the rules in midstream, and does affect companies that spent significant sums in LSM-targeted development already. My objections would not be as strong had the new verbage been put into place from the beginning. For instance, we knew about the GPL license at that time and accepted what impact that would have on us from the start. I know for a fact that the HP legal team has spent a large amount of time understanding GPL and operating within its structure. Adding the new statement at this time would mean significantly more legal work, with a possible negative impact on work with, and acceptance of, LSM. Fairness says to remove the new language, and furthermore, get agreement that the license will remain GPL, with no new restrictive clauses. --steve kramer _______________________________________________ linux-security-module mailing list linux-security-moduleat_private http://mail.wirex.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-security-module
