@lina @organicmaps @opensourceopenmind @manankanchu hi, i edited paragraph 3 to make it less ambiguous and more direct. " im probably misunderstanding but are you saying that "attribution always required = free" and "attribution requirement can be removed by request = nonfree"?" No. required attribution is good and is ubiquitous in free licenses attribution is seperate from branding the issue is the conditional permission to modify branding. the FSF recognizes licenses that require branding to be changed to avoid confusion between forks and derivative projects, but the FSF does not accept branding being used as a tool to effectively hinder or limit the user's freedom to modify and redistribute without permission.
