You shouldn't have to guess as to the meaning or intent. This is a matter that relates to actual case and business law, not an interpretive reading of the Bible (as much as gubuntu might privately wish to differ on that point). The wording needs to be much more clear. No one should ever have had to/still need to sit back and simply take their best guess.
One is flirting with getting sued if they guess wrong. This isn't just shits and grins stuff.
I don't know what Canonical thinks they're doing but what they appear to be doing (besides playing God) is obvious enough that if they think other companies are going to strike deals with them rather than go with one of the many free variants and just not deal with all the bs, I think they're going to need to think again. Proof's always in the numbers.
