Very open(BSD), as opposed to the API nonsense:

Open vs. Fauxpen

,----[ Quote ]
| Take a look at what Tristan says about "The API cycle". Yes, we do want APIs 
| to be open and useful. But we also want independence and free agency for 
| everybody in a given category's ecosystem. I fear that some APIs -- 
| especially ones that lock us into dependency on commercial intermediaries 
| that may fail -- are also a breed of fauxpen. And we'll learn big lessons 
| about that as soon as some big commercial tree on which millons depend -- one 
| with an "open API" -- fails to grow to the sky.
