Maybe I am misunderstanding this, but are they proposing that people include the full license text with every JavaScript script?

  Not the full license, apparently two paragraphs essentially explaining that the license is in the source are enough. (See appendix A) But you still have to include those two paragraphs in all minified files...

    This doesn't seem practical, why not a link to the license, similar to a link to the source?

      This works, too. You can use a separate page that maps a minified JavaScript file to a license and the corresponding source code.

      Practicality is not something Stallman cares about.

        Touché. Can someone here calculate the added costs (bandwidth and energy) of add it that much payload to every JavaScript snippet?
