      Sarah Ward of MongoDB: "We understood that introducing a new open source license would be controversial...but we do view this first version that we put out as a starting point and are open to iterating on that model based on the feedback that we're getting" #SFLC2018 #FOSS

      "Experimentation is good, but it depends on the way in which it is done...[A license may be converted] to a closure of the commons...I'm hopeful that we can explore the appropriate boundaries for copyleft from a #FreeSoftware standpoint" says @richardfontana of @RedHat. #SFLC2018

      Jim Wright of @Oracle: "Alterations of licenses that take something from a piece of code that comports with the four freedoms to something that no longer does that affects users dramatically. As a consumer, the steps that I've had to take are fairly drastic." #SFLC2018

      .@RichardFontana: "RedHat can't practically distribute software that's only under OSI-approved licenses...But [RedHat's programs all] conform to a certain range of restrictiveness...What we think of as legitimately open source is a limited set of possible conditions." #SFLC2018

      Eben Moglen: "#GPLv3 was made by listening to all the business that would talk to us...We didn't want to break any business models...Users rights should be regarded as the key reason that all of this works in the first place...That has a long, natural history..." #SFLC2018

      Eben Moglen: As a movement, I don't see why we should engage in cheating on users rights in order to make business models work. We didn't have to do that in the past. We shouldn't have to do that now. #SFLC2018
