Replying to [comment:7 mascguy]:
> My original freak-out related to this topic, didn't factor in the
various licenses that come into play. But I think - and I'll let Josh
clarify - that this will mostly be a pain for GPL-based components.
Yes, as is often the case due to the GPL being the only widely used
license that has a "no additional restrictions" requirement, it's only the
GPL (and derivatives like AGPL and CeCILL) that conflicts with the APSL.
