-Contributions of patches, ideas, and criticism are welcome (see the file
-CONTRIBUTING.md for more information).  In particular, the Copyleft-Next
-Project actively seeks the participation of open source/free software
-project developers who may not have considered helping with license
-drafting before. License drafting is fundamentally about establishing
-policies for projects, and therefore input from developers is typically
-more valuable than input from lawyers.
