* re [by Omnifarious on advogate: "I agree strongly with the critique that you lack any major novelists or musicians as part of your group."] I don't see this as such a big concern and here are some thoughts on the issue:
** This is an honest question: Was RMS a big/famous software developer when he came up with the idea for the GPL? If not...
** While it might be nice, a major novelist or musician has pretty much succeeded in the current system. They may be steeped in "how things are done" - that said, the music industry, at least, is famous for messing up the artists, so you may find some willing to try a new way of doing things. Was it Chuck D who was making some noise a while back along these lines?
** It is supposeldy not unusual for major changes to a system to come from those outside the system.
