CEO approval for any code being open sourced? Eek... With respect to previous discussions this week on HN about GPL vs BSD (or permissive) licences, I do understand the massive inertia that has to be overcome to open source anything at a large or attorney bound company. Anything that contributes to this: i.e. attorney's uncertainties about the GPL, can stop good projects being freed. I think that in a situation like this, you should accept any licence you can to get the software out. Thankfully in personal projects you have more freedom..
