I guess Ross is still asking / waiting for people to agree to the GPL
proposal. To speed things up a bit, I've got some additional points to
consider:

(1) As latex2html currently contains GPL'ed files, we are probably
forced to issue it wholly under the protection of the GPL.

(2) The point D of the current latex2html license doesn't imply the
supersession of point B (no fees or compensation) for distributions like
Debian, as argued by Ross. It just makes an exception for these
distributions from the clause that unrelated aggregated software is
subject to the current license.

HTH. :)
