The fact that I accept zlib is pretty irrelevant, really, inasmuch as I am
neither a tool author nor a parts author. It DOES matter in that the wrong
license happens to hamper my use of the lib, but not as much as what the
parts authors think. I'm just a gadfly, don't read too much in to my vocalism.
that said...
I prefer zlib to GPL as I think there is less leakthrough of license terms
to derivative works... and that's what I care about most (except for the
second order effect on the likelihood of others continuing to contribute).
