Re: Open-source FRC code

Instead of all this arguing about GPL vs non-GPL, why don't we just make our own license? As I see it what we need absolutely need is:
1) Redistributable
2) Intellectual property (not like Monster Cables, may they burn in whatever place their religion proscribes to people who rip off innocent customers with imaginary techno-jargon and sue all their competitors over idiotic claims, but just to keep people from saying 'I made this' when they didn't)
3) Compatible with Kevin's license

A thing that I think may make teams more likely to post code:
1) An additional clause teams can choose to license their code under if they want to that requires that the code not be used verbatim

Anyone else think making our own license is a good idea?
