Dear ILISP Developers,

I've compiled the ILISP developer questionnaire results. In the
questionnaire distributed on November 20 2002, I asked 5 questions and
gave a time limit until December 20, 2002 to reply.

I've sent the questionnaire to over 113 email addresses representing
70 individuals who had been noted in a potential contributor. I
received replies from 29 individuals (41%). Of these 29 replies, here
are the number of objections:

1. Change the license to GPL: 1 (1.4%)
2. Assign copyrights to the FSF: 1 (1.4%)
3. Remove the clause from the current license: 0 (0%)

Given these results, I will remove the clause:
  	o  No fees or compensation are charged for use, copies, or
	   access to this software. You may charge a nominal
	   distribution fee for the physical act of transferring a
	   copy, but you may not charge for the program itself. 
from ILISP's license.

If a ILISP developer later replies that they object to the removal of this clause,
it will be necessary to restore this clause.

To all who replied, thanks for your time!
