I think we are past the point of wording changes for clarity. Every wording 
change causes a several weeks delay while we contact the lawyers and 
discuss the ramifications. After every change, we then have to wait a 
further length of time to see if any Boosters come up with serious 
problems.

So unless someone comes up with a killer problem, I think we need to go 
with the license as it currently appears in CVS. That wording has been 
stable for a month or more, and I think most of the people who have 
commented have been positive. I know the sentences are longer than any of 
my English teachers would have approved of, but several attempts to clarify 
the wording have floundered.
