Re: LYNX-DEV GNU licence help

[Larry W. Virden, x2487]

I beg you all - please - do NOT get into a philosophical discussion
concerning copyright vs copyleft vs other.

We basically don't have a choice in the matter of lynx; it was put in
GNU copyleft and that consumes all other code that is added to it at this
point; think of it as "the black hole of software" (which can be a good or
bad thing; no moralistic overtones are intended in this label).

We don't need raging battles of GNU vs the world on this list.  If you
_have_ to discuss this, could it either be taken to private mail or to
gnu.misc?
