According to:
<http://www.apache.org/licenses/GPL-compatibility.html>>
they've been talking to the FSF. The point being that the FSF is the one that says that the Apache 2.0 license is not compatible with the GPL - the issue seems to revolve around the patent terms in the Apache license.

GPL 3 to Take on IP, Patents (eWeek) Posted Nov 23, 2004 16:36 UTC (Tue) by job (guest, #670) [Link] You might want to read that again. The grand parent is talking about the LGPL, not the GPL. As to Apache 2 and GPL, if you read the FSFs official view it suggests that they regard this particular incompatibility as a bug that might get fixed in GPL v3.
