The Goose and Gander License

I've been spending a lot of time in SDR-land lately, which, owing to the popularity of the GPL there, has mostly turned into an exercise in being angry. I don't think it's a bad license per se, but I have serious reservations about interpreting "derived work" to mean anything that links with your code. I was in an ornery mood, so I put together the Goose and Gander License (or GGL), which turns the tables somewhat and gave me a chance to revel in the ridiculousness of viral licensing. I can certainly see the appeal now.
