If someone on the list from TDF is authorized to answer this (or can get such authorization), I'd appreciate an official stance on the following questions. This would help us understand what room there is for negotiation and what is not worth discussing at all.
For "willing to consider it", I mean in the context of a negotiation where there is some give and take. I'm not asking if you're willing to do this for nothing. I just want to understand what are the deal breakers and where we should be focusing discussions. I'm not interested in debating these questions in this thread, aside from clarifications. We're debating these issues in other threads. I'm just trying to see if we can agree on which of these directions, if any, is likely to be fruitful and which ones, if any, are fundamentally impossible for TDF/LO. I think we've given straightforward answers on where ASF is flexible and where it cannot budge. I'd welcome similar clarity from TDF/LO, in the spirit of moving forward these discussions.
