BOSL or MIT - Orchard

For the record, and speaking only for myself:

  • I prefer MIT licensing for everything;
  • I think that the license compatibility down-sides of BOSL have been underestimated by ECC.

The latter could mostly be fixed by dual-licensing the orchard crate as BOSL/GPLv3, and I think that would also serve to dissipate some of the FUD that has been directed at ECC for choosing BOSL.
