That's kind of like saying "I have a fork of bash that you may be interested in". It fails the familiarity test, and that's really important.

- candiddevmike 3y agoDoes that really matter in the context of a license though? The terms are the terms, if folks don't agree with the terms they can negotiate different ones or not use it.
- benatkin 3y agoThere isn't a lot of people thinking, gee, I want an unfamiliar license, so you're going out on a limb by showing someone a new one. Just like if you made a fork of bash with some new feature and were like, "here, use this".
- hiatus 3y agoIf you want your software to be used, yes it matters very much.
