One thing I don't understand about what McVoy's doing Perens (LinuxWorld)One thing I don't understand about what McVoy's doing Perens (LinuxWorld)Posted Jan 28, 2003 16:08 UTC (Tue) by jamesh (subscriber, #1159)In reply to: One thing I don't understand about what McVoy's doing Perens (LinuxWorld) by rknop Parent article: Larry McVoy on BitKeeper, kernel development, Linus Torvalds and Bruce Perens (LinuxWorld) Probably because a company wanting privacy could take the GPL version and remove the change set advertising code, which would remove the incentive to buy the proprietary version. The code managed by an SCM is not a derived work of the SCM, so the GPL'd version wouldn't place any restrictions on the managed code.
