   @bkuhn Reminds me of the worst FLOSS conceptual confusion I ever encountered: someone who referred to the FSF as "the BSD". TRUE STORY.

   One of the interesting points made was @bkuhn's assertion that #PyCon is really not a !freesoftware conference (if I caught that correctly).

   @bkuhn yes "doing boring work" is suboptimal from marketing perspective. Analogizing developers to #rockstars is #problematic though.

   @bkuhn little way to gauge effects of #roadie metaphor in any case. Reserve right to say #itoldyouso

   • csolisr
   @csolisr Yes; for actively maintained project, over time (15 years!) oldest parts start to get BSD-ified, newer parts still copyleft

    • csolisr
    @csolisr Their 15-year-old work which presumably they or others have been modifying over that period (if it's still alive); newer parts CLN

    I see that draft !CC 4.0 licenses explicitly say patent rights aren't licensed. Why is this needed? !puzzled

    @bkuhn @pchestek tried to use #Gitorious but gave up but was able to use #github. Something significant in that.

    @bymerej I think it is overhyped issue, seems used by some to erect barriers to entry and discourage progress in free culture licensing

    @bkuhn maybe we need a conservancy for free culture license-drafting projects (beyond !CC)

    @zotz local law may limit reach of 14. Is about user suing upstream distributor for damages. Standard in free and proprietary-COTS licenses.

    @zotz if #copyleft-next not #GPL compatible anti-license-proliferationist arguments become a bit stronger.
