Biancuzzi: What about GPL3 then?

| Raymond: It's another reciprocal license. Better written in some ways than
| GPL2; I had a long email conversation with Linus in which I tried to persude
| him to adopt it, my goal being to reduce the amount of political crap flying
| around in the community.

GNU's upcoming 25-year anniversary
,----[ Quote ]
| Bruce Perens' 10 year look back at the "Open Source" marketing campaign
| reminded me of another anniversary coming up. On September 27th, it'll be the
| 25-year anniversary of the GNU project's announcement, and thus, of the free
| software movement. That's a biggie. What to do?

| My previous reports have discussed SCO. SCO is toast. Good riddance. However,
| many in our community have been damaged by SCO's allegations and will never
| be compensated. Mr. Ralph Yarro made some tens of millions from the rise of
| SCO's stock on anticipation that they'd win something. He has been allowed to
| keep those funds. I see no suit, legal charge, or SEC investigation against
| him so far. We must also note Microsoft's participation as financial backer
| of SCO, as revealed in sworn testimony during the case.
