I saw the same discussion that started all this, and had the same thoughts 
about reconsidering some of our license stuff. IMP is probably entrenched; 
sorting that out would be a mess. We switched Horde to the LGPL once; I 
wouldn't have a problem switching it to BSD if we could sort it out. Other 
apps - Gollem, Chora, Kronolith, Turba, Nag - definitely have a small enough 
set of contributors that we could make them BSD if we wanted to. Or PHP 
License, or...

Thoughts?
