The more I know about GPLv3 the less I like itThe more I know about GPLv3 the less I like itPosted Oct 21, 2006 22:02 UTC (Sat) by error27 (subscriber, #8346)Parent article: Linux: GPLv3, DRM, and Exceptions (KernelTrap.org)
I liked it when we could take BSD licensed software and incorporate it into our GPL licensed programs. The BSD guys used to get so upset but what could they do?
The article talks about how the kernel could go with the GPLv3 but just remove the DRM clause. Then if someone else liked the DRM clause they could add it later and there code couldn't be merged back into the main repository.
Now people would take kernel code and not give anything back. It kind of sucks to have the tables turned doesn't it?
