In other portions of the world (US in particular) Canonical's agreement is
actually as problematic as our editor explains. Europe's concept of 'moral
rights' does not exist in the US, and is not a dominant concept throughout
the world (although it does show up in other areas if I remember correctly).

Yes, but in a collaborative project it is enough to have some "European"
developers to block proprietary changes. And fortunately this block is valid
in all the world.

How about European projects such as QT and MySQL? How does a similar agreement work for them?
