The microsoft and apple app stores are fairly hostile toward free
software developers, but they do have a considerable market share. So I
think there are free software developers who would be interested in a
license which achieves the aims of copyleft insofar that is allowed by
the common app store agreements.
Has anyone given this any thought?
I haven't thought about it (until now) in connection with
copyleft-next, but this is a good suggestion to consider. The problem
seems analogous to the problem that the old GPL system library
exception was trying to solve (or clarify).
This goes in the still non-existent issue tracker. :)
