I'm thinking that the GBI is more of a browsing/learning tool than a tool
for returning highly specific search results. It could do that as well if
the user wanted, of course.
Some people go into a library and browse the stacks in their general area
of interest to find what they want; some go straight to the catalog and
look up some specific books. Ditto the more tools the better...

Good question. I assume I am... :-)

Right, we need explicit responses for "neutral" and "agree."
That was an example.

I replied on this already also - GPL or functional equivalent is fine with
me for code, and I defer ("neutral" I take that to mean) to those with
more knowledge of data licenses to make that decision - as long as it's
"free" in the same way the GPL makes the code "free."
