Jeff, it's not clear under your license how Debian could package a
modified version.  OUr binary packaging system (and the DFSG) do not
really allow modifications to be separate from the original
particularly for compiled works.  I may be missing something obvious.
Assuming that this license were adopted, how could Debian use it?
