Just to (hopefully) clarify this situation a little... here is the
problem in a nutshell.
Debians position is: We have no problem with attribution, but if we are
forced to attribute in a specific manner that is not, and will not be
acceptable.
Han's position is: That's cool, problem is that not everyone is so
noble, and my license is trying to ensure that those who would not be
so noble are forced to fairly attribute.
Debians counter position: Hmm. There is a problem then, we cannot
accept a discriminatory license, so it cannot be fixed "only for us",
and we cannot accept a license the restricts the modification of the
code.
(I know someone will correct me if I have misstated those positions)

What pray tell do you think they are doing, they are trying to find a
middle ground that they can both agree on. Well mostly, there is also
some flameage going on, but most of it was trying to describe where the
middle ground might lie. So far, they have not been able to really
agree on where that middle ground is.

As do we all... But that doesn't mean that all other issues become
trivial and non-sensical.
Cheers,
Paul

i have absolutely no problem the way reiser4 works now, hell, i havent
noticed a change. but now where you announce a "monster" big problem, i
tried follow the boot of a machine running reiser4, and i see fsck tell
"see credits for more info", or something like that, whats wrong with
that? hell! remove the message from reiser4progs then! i believe they
are GPL.
get real.
