> This isn't a new policy. It's largely the same reason OpenBSD shipped with a fork of Apache 1.3.x for many years before ultimately writing their own httpd(8).

From what I recall, Apache httpd 2.0 came out a long time before Apache License 2.0. A quick check of Wikipedia confirms it:

> The Apache HTTP Server codebase was relicensed to the Apache 2.0 License (from the previous 1.1 license) in January 2004, and Apache HTTP Server 1.3.31 and 2.0.49 were the first releases using the new license.

If OpenBSD wanted to use httpd 2.x without switching to the new license, they could have forked 2.0.48. Their reasons for not using httpd 2.x were entirely technical. Architecturally, 2.x was a major departure from 1.x, and the OpenBSD developers were grognards who rejected it because they weren't interested in a web server that deviates from tradition. And since Apache still maintained 1.3.x for ages after 2.0 came out, it made their decision easier (well, until the license change hit).

And this is a huge digression anyway: I honestly don't see a reason to cater to a group of people who would cut off their nose to spite their face. The LLVM team has better things to do with their time.
