GPL compliance issues are tearing Joomla! apart (Linux.com)

Here's a Linux.com story on the debate over proprietary extension modules in the GPL-licensed Joomla project. "[Project leader Louis] Landry wants developers to understand that the reason Joomla! wants to move closer to the GPL is to protect the project. "If we are condoning violations, we're weaker in a legal sense. If someone challenged our license down the road, if we've systematically been condoning violations, they could say, 'What's different now?'""
