[opensource-dev] Third party viewer policy: commencement date

[Morgaine]

I believe that they're seeking better-informed legal counsel on GPL
compliance first, before redrafting the TPV.   The first version conflated
users, viewers and developers so terribly that GPLv2 clause 6 was left in
tatters.  Joe's phrasing is the only one that makes the necessary separation
so far.  I hope he has a hand in the redraft. :-)

Regarding commencement, that was just typical product manager silliness,
announcing release or commencement dates before something is ready.  File
under ignore.


Morgaine.
