All copyright changes are carefully considered by the steering committee with appropriate consultation with lawyers and necessary contacts with other copyright holders before we make any changes. In this case, we got specific permission from Craig Metz to change the terms on his code. In other cases where we change terms, we always secure necessary permission first. Noone on the SC will make any change like this without the full SC having first agreed to all the details (and noone else should be making such changes at all). It's our job to be anal about this stuff, and we are.
