If LLVM would move to the Apache 2 license, we would become unable
to use versions released after that change, and would be stuck with
version released before the change, just like we are stuck with
pre-GPLv3 gcc now. So it would be very bad for us.
See
http://www.openbsd.org/policy.html :
Apache
The original Apache license was similar to the Berkeley license,
but source code published under version 2 of the Apache license
is subject to additional restrictions and cannot be included
into OpenBSD.
In a nutshell, OpenBSD does not consider software released under
Apache 2 to be free software. At least not free enough for us.
Yours,
Ingo
