is it? if we rewrite Roma in HTML5 with lots of javascript doing the grunt work,

one definition is that software (BSD) is what computers read,
and documents (CC) are what humans read.  But then what
is data, like a stream of RDF?

it may be more productive to write some code to calculate
how many angels we could fit on a pin head than debate this
for ever. The dual-licensing model takes the onus of deciding
off our backs.
