My collab.net interview was my only interview which consisted in
part of debating the merits of BSD-type vs. GPL licenses.
That essay also has a lucid explanation of what the GPL actually
requires: "that
software authors should be required to make their source code
available to the same extent that they make the object code available."

I found an essay
on the ethical motivation behind BSD-type licensing. Good timing,
as many of the collab.net people like that kind of license. I don't
care one way or the other. If someone's going to pay me to write non-copylefted free software, I'll
do it. In actual fact, someone is going to pay me. Therefore, I'll do it.
