[$] Debating the Cryptographic Autonomy License

If one were to ask a group of free-software developers whether thecommunity needs more software licenses, the majority of the group wouldalmost certainly answer "no". We have the licenses we need to express arange of views of software freedom, and adding to the list just tends tocreate confusion and compatibility issues. That does not stop people fromwriting new licenses, though. While much of the "innovation" in software licenses in recent times is focused on giving copyright holders more controlover how others use their code (while still being able to brand it "opensource"), there are exceptions. The proposed "Cryptographic Autonomy License" (CAL) is one of those; itspurpose is to give users of CAL-licensed code control over the data that isprocessed with that code.
