I didn't realize there are per-seat licenses.  I am not surprized to see 
their proposal match the current proprietary model of per-seat cost because 
that is what companies expect.  It's hard for many to realize that they are 
overcharged for most commercial software.  

RMS and the FSF are opposed:

Anyone else for / against the per seat proposal?
