(I'm making a serious point -- it's annoying when people use the word "consume" as though it were a synonym for "use". It's not.)
I don't consider "use" a synonym for "consume" in this case, as consuming an upstream project covers redistribution as well. Now, I could write "use or redistribute" everywhere, but "consume" is shorter. Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncoghlan@gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia
