the_logos will become famous soon enough
I don't think it's reasonable at all actually. People start projects based on the license, not on mindreading what a group of different individuals thought 12 years ago. It's completely unreasonable to tell those people that they should have to figure out what the licensors meant rather than what the license everyone is so hot and heavy over -actually- says. Further, what the licensors think can and probably does change over time (which is also irrelevant). Licenses are not living documents. They're set in stone.

Licenses are legal documents and only have meaning under the law. You're trying to slap extra clauses and definitions in this license when there are none.
