Oh ghod, not *that* discussion again...

Read the archives (IIRC, the last really major go-round was in mid-2000,

No. Fortunately we agreed to try not to change the license again before
the "final" release of PostgreSQL. This _might_ take a while, but has
the tremendeous benefit of reducing the license changes to one.
