# Agreed.  I favor the least restrictive license.  Unfortunately, the

Make that a fairly-widely-used less-restrictive license, so that both
contributors and "productizing" users (and backers thereof) will have
lots of allies in case some deep pockets launch legal battering rams
against open source licenses.

Also, you probably need to have a (hopefully very simple) mechanism
whereby contributors certify that they are submitting things that they
believe to not be bound by previous copyrights or any other legal
encumberances (e.g. patents or trade secrets).

How about using the license under which Programming Ruby was 
cyber-charitied to all the world's present and future sentient 
inhabitants?
