    Like to see alternatives to GNU. It has way too much popularity in the majority of software out there. Though the popular ones like X and Mozilla have their licenses. I like the BSD personally but would like to see more take off as well.

      I am aware CC is more common with literal works than source code but it can be applied to both.
