Thanks a lot for your insight! I'm glad the US military takes Software licensing seriously - this means spending time on this may actually be valuable.
I don't want to go in to my specific objections because they're not material here, but I appreciate that militaries don't only make war. That doesn't change my objective.
I wouldn't normally leave a reply like this, but I would like to say that your comment took me by surprise. In my personal community, I'm used to knee-jerk responses to the military that feel both hostile and uninformed. Your reply was neither and I want to thank you for that.
I can get a bit defensive about this sort of thing, but that's not an excuse for implying that you were being "cavalier". I apologize for doing so. You seem to be thinking carefully about what you want to do and how to go about doing it.
I sincerely appreciate that you are approaching your work and your words with thoughtfulness. Good luck with your project.
