[ X ] Insufficient time.

My previous comments about licence summaries being Evil Bad and Wrong
hold. Given this is about graphviz in particular, why not summarise
just graphviz's situation?

I also think you are predicting the future in several places without
making clear the basis for those claims. That's up to you, but I
don't have the data to endorse those predictions.

The body of the summary looks fine, but I wasn't watching closely enough
to know whether it's accruate, it gives no references and I don't have
enough time to reread all that email right now.

I hope that explains my lack of support for this summary in a way
you (or someone else) might use to improve it.
