I hope I'm not rocking the boat here, but I don't think I agree with
this nebulous "social contract" -- no gotcha's from our end, none
from their end.  I would hate to see a "communist contract" from them
for instance in which I'd have to go peer over every detail and waste
time studying it :-)

I know there are strong feelings to the contrary, but for someone that been
around GNU and shareware and osdn, "social contract" doesn't mean much to me
and I'd only guess to others as well.

How do we protect OUR interests in having "Free Software" vs. "Open Source"
and "Social Contract" vs. "GPL-friendly" ??

Simple, direct, and to the point.
