Subject: [bitcoin-dev] Possible change to the MIT license

I do not know that Bitcoin's position is any weaker because of the terms that the software is licenced under.

I disagree completely with any licence change. As well as allowing for the use of a software, a licence is also a disclaimer for those responsible for the release. Changing a single word can have drastic implications should there ever be any action considered against any involved party or group. The current MIT licence is IMHO the right fit.
Regards,
