Whats wrong with the current license? Are people
running off and making their own versions of allegro
or something? Unless there are some spinoffs that I'm
not aware of, I dont think there are any incidents
where people have taken advantage of the license.
Personaly, I'm very attached to the current license.
Maybe this is something Shawn should decide.
