Fine with me.

Also fine.

This `multi-licensing' idea I am unsure about.  I think it only makes
sense when there are multible distributions, each with a single license.

Since anonymous CVS is essentially a distribution, we would need to shut
that down, since under a multi-license scheme it would not contain
properly licensed code but `plug-in license' code.

Now that doesn't bother me, but it is food for thought.

Yes.
