Re: AbiWord, trademarks, and DFSG-freeness
You can't quite change the name of the work using a patch. You always
have to distribute the original, which includes its name. If Abiword
were under a patch-clause license, Debian'd have to distribute
software which said "This is Abiword" on every startup... plus
patches.
