Hi all;

I had an idea that you could offer to let people triple-license their
changes.


How does that work? Surely if they licensed their work Apache it means
there
is no need for the other licenses because the Apache license would
effectively over-ride the conditions of the other license. Maybe I'm
missing
something here?

It is true that the only license that matters is the least restrictive one,
Not automatically. Someone might want the more restrictive license
because he wants to mix it with other code with a license incompatible
to the least restrictive license you offer.
but people usually add licenses and so I was following that method. If you
decide to throw the others away as pointless if Apache is chosen for a
change, that would be an optimization.
