[Announcements] Posted Jun 21, 2008 15:58 UTC (Sat) by corbet

Black Duck Software observes the first anniversary of GPLv3 with a press release about its study of adoption of this license. "Since the release of GPLv3, 2,345 open source projects have opted to use the license. The number of projects covered by GPLv3 has been growing at a rate of about 20 percent per month over the past six months. Ubuntu, SugarCRM, Samba and Funambol are a few of the widely used projects that have selected GPLv3." Version 2 is still the dominant license, though.
