Re: new food for the contrib/ directory

first comment :

* a special directory with ./contrib/gpl ?

second comment : 

* I don't really understand your position regarding the GNU General Public  License. The GPL is offering multiple
advantagesfor a big project and  software like PostgreSQL. For example : 
 
       * Contribution back to the main tree more easy if redistribution.          (like HP and Samba team are doing,
copyrightholder remains samba team) 
 
       * More easy to get a RF (Royalty Free) license from a patent          owner. (this is guarantee for him that it
willnot go back to           proprietary software where it's not a RF license) (like the          UB-Trees)
 
       * A possible bigger audience.

Dual licensing is also an alternative but could be a real mess. 

It's just idea.
