Clarification: the reason why it's a bad idea is because this is a function of people's perception of the action at the time the action occurs, not at the time when the license is written. It might not always be the case that people perceive these namespaces in this fashion; if that were to happen then the constraint you describe would have become "unreasonable". -- .''`. ** Debian GNU/Linux ** | Andrew Suffield : :' : http://www.debian.org/ | `. `' | `- -><- |
