I believe it came from a discussion where to draft a new license would require the original developer to pay a lawyer. Someone suggested raising money to pay the developer the money to transition to BSD, a known license, instead of to a lawyer for yet another unknown license.


Wow, that's even weirder than I imagined. Regardless, I'm glad it's been freed due to the generosity of some individuals :)
