Jeff and JT talk about everyone's favorite issue... FOSS Licensing. JT goes into detail about one concern he has for the future of Software Licensing.

Confucius say, 'Licensing is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.'
\n\nWhatever your stance, Licensing discussions are one of THE hot-button issues in the FOSS world. Only three things are certain in this world: death, taxes, and FOSS licensing arguments.
