Interview with Andrew Tanenbaum (LinuxFr.org)Interview with Andrew Tanenbaum (LinuxFr.org)Posted Nov 19, 2011 17:03 UTC (Sat) by pboddie (subscriber, #50784)In reply to: Interview with Andrew Tanenbaum (LinuxFr.org) by elanthis Parent article: Interview with Andrew Tanenbaum (LinuxFr.org)
If you want to argue that the GPL in any way forces companies to meaningfully contribute back, you haven't paid even the slightest bit of attention to any major GPL-licensed project. I didn't argue that it "forces" anyone to do anything. That's why I wrote that an "avenue of potential incorporation" of modifications to a project exists, as opposed to a mechanism to compel organisations to contribute changes upstream. And much of your response actually restates what I wrote, in fact, which I suppose I should take as some kind of compliment.
