Fair points. I stand corrected on many of them
I posted it mainly because SO is copy-left, and not clear, but only really compatible with gpl
That is a negative reason tho, and we can say that SO really has had massive positive benefit -- and I should aim for something better
-- But yeah, on the link topic...
We want to see people treated better. But part of that means accepting them when they don't do or believe what I want -- and we can't force that onto them -- or by extension onto SO or other companies either
So I guess I should do what you suggest, and aim for high standards, but build up, rather than tear down
... Going forwards tho, it's going to be sadly hard to use SO for BSD or cc0 projects
