Why do you think a strong GPL implies "the entire world must use MY license"? I want a strong GPL, and I want "the code I wrote shall stay free", and I see a strong GPL as one way to achieve that goal. I have no objection to the use of other free software licenses by other authors. > You seem to be advocating security by obscurity. That's not usually > the free-software way of doing things.

Unfortunately while that can work excellently with security software (though I would note that it is Debian practice to work out security problems in private), it works less well in many other cases.
