I have also contributed to Free Stuff. If you want to demand a specific set of requirements, you can set up a server/interchange or convince the managers of this server/interchange that your set of requirements are better than what they currently have. Of course, since you don't feel that your proposed requirements have any importance, you'll have a steep uphill battle. And in any case, you are perfectly free to release your works into the public domain--it is your right. It is also the right of other people not to do so. Of course, your set of requirements is of EXACTLY THE SAME sort of pre-restrictions that you object against. However, you would put the onus of restrictive burden upon the donor rather than the recipient. As I have said before, nobody is obliged to use or even download anything showcased on this or any other such site. Thus, there is no injustice in reasonable use limitations ("reasonable" used in the legal sense, not in the good sense sense).
