Open Source Software Shows Its Muscle

,----[ Quote ]
| Two recent events should give for-profit companies new reasons to re-evaluate 
| the ways in which they use open source software as well as the extent to 
| which they use it. These events are: (1) the release of a new version of the 
| widely used license that covers such software, i.e., the General Public 
| License version 3, and (2) a round of lawsuits filed by the Software Freedom 
| Law Center against for-profit companies using the software for commercial 
| gain. Four companies to date, the largest of which is Verizon Communications 
| Inc., have been sued for violation of the GPL.

,----[ Quote ]
| It was the fall of 1999 and there was a fever in the air. The dotcom frenzy
| was in full bonanza, it was gonzo, and it was going to last forever.
