On: Tgppl, a new type of open-source license

[GranPC]

I haven't read the license fully, but wouldn't that just mean you would be able to use releases that are older than the time period specified?

That's my reading as well. It's actually kind of funny to me: the term of copyright has grown so long that folks are essentially looking for ways to reimplement reasonable copyright term length inside of the construct of copyright protection itself.

That is a fair point.

Depending on the type of software and the frequency of bug fixes that may be a more or less reasonable strategy.

Also, in case you haven't read the license, the time period is 12 months.
