The part I get a chuckle out of every time I read it is the solar system and space transport vehicles part, I picture Elon Musk reading the license and saying "This is a great license for our project", and then I get a mental image of astronauts on the International Space Station flipping channels on endstream and endtv to pass the time. The rest was meant to be serious.
> What constitutes a "neighbor"? That's not a term with a defined legal meaning, and to the extent that it has one, it's not what you seem to think it means. I can't share the code with someone in another country? They're not my neighbor. Or do you mean it in a metaphorical sense? Legal documents are probably a bad place for metaphors.
This is a valid complaint. I'll change the word neighbor to recipient .
> You say modify AND improve, not modify OR improve. I can only modify it if I improve it? What if you think my changes make it worse? Who decides? You? I guess I'm in violation of the license, then.
This is a valid complaint. I'll remove the word improve. You can freely modify the code and run and distribute the modified code. Improvements are not required, and I won't be the judge. I'll only be the judge of what is released by Endware.

I'm going to make 2 licenses, the first will attempt to rectify some of the complaints by adding and deleting words, and the second will be a simplified license where I delete everything that is redundant and attempt complete generality on the first line of every category.
I'd like to get more opinions about the license than that of just a single user or detractor. Don't we have a resident copyright lawyer? MikeeUSA? Maybe he can help me. Does anyone else have any positive or negative comments about the current license they would like to share? If so feel free to add to the discussion below.
