[edit] Adding examples that use the licences

The list would be better if each licence was followed by some examples of software released under that licence. That way the article would add value rather than just replicating what FSF has published. Gronky 15:11, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

It would be great if all the red links were linked either to a relevent article or to a copy of the article text too. NicM 15:46, 14 February 2007 (UTC).

[edit] What would it take to get Featured status

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:What_is_a_featured_list%3F

It seems it would be possible to fulfil all the criteria to make this a "Featured list". Any suggestions on further improvements to the current layout to make it even more state-of-the-art? Gronky 13:15, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

The biggest problem is that most of the cells are empty and there are far too many red links. If there isn't an article, the license name should link to a copy of the license. In addition, it might be nice to use {{yes}} and {{no}} and add a longer intro. NicM 16:50, 28 February 2007 (UTC).
"License of X" is clumsy, they would all be better as "X's license." And the list needs to be sorted. NicM 16:53, 28 February 2007 (UTC).
