but some of the public statements towards the GPLv3 process are downright mean-spirited and/or ill-informed at times and serve no obvious purpose.

All I can say is what goes around comes around. Many of us do not believe in one true way, even if we are very much believers in free software. I've been on the receiving end of about a billionth of a percent of the vitriol that Linus and others have encountered and I'll tell you I'm very tired of it. I'm surprised that Linus isn't a heck of a lot more negative given his experiences.
