-::Only the [[User:MotherOfTrolls]] can explain [[User:142.177.X.X]].  Until then, this one issue can be explained (below).  Trolls prefer however the term [[compost]] to "rubbish" or "shit", as their output is wholly [[organic]].
-:::hum. shit is organic too, but it has a very negative connotation. It is untransformed waste, with microbial contamination perhaps. Not safe. A troll would not put that on your floor. Rubbish is somehow implying it is an end product, with no value whatsoever. Plastic bits. This troll would not put that on your floor. A compost is a co-product upon which a garden may flourish. It is a well-balanced medium upon which something can feed and grow. Remember, a [[waste]] may stop being an end-product if you decide so, and be renamed natural resource. This troll is there to spread compost everywhere on your floor
-----
 If you are considering any other license scheme than [[GPL]], which it said you were, [[LGPL]] must be the very next one considered, as it is viral but only to the library or schema level, i.e. does not infect anything that uses that code or library or schema at arm's length as long as it does not modify it.  [[GFDL]] is actually more like LGPL because GFDL has [[Invariant Section]]s and other [[Secondary Section]]s to which the normal viral rules don't apply.  These are like the calling code, or larger framework, that might rely on LGPL libraries.
