Ok I did get a response from the lawyer...
as in typical lawyer talk he didn't give much
of a response either way, but I think
he is open to discussion.

Ok somebody from the BSD camp should an provide
an example of an acceptable license.
If I can present something other than abstract concept
more progress can be made.

The one major requirement is that somebody like Sun or
IBM can't pick up the code and start commercializing it.
And no I'm not saying restricting a commercial product
with XFS, but restricting somebody from making XFS
a commercial product unto itself.
