Those licenses have generally been failures. Such a license makes
software non-free by the standards of GNU and Debian, for example,
so any sites adhering to those guidelines will refuse to distribute
software licensed in this way. And there's enough free software out
there that no one is going to assume a burdensome nuisance for the
sake of some developer with an axe to grind. There's quite a bit of
recent history of packages and developers being kicked out of open
source projects for behaving in this way.
