Open Source Licensing: Obsolete or Of Importance?

,----[ Quote ]
| It’s not debatable that different open source licenses carry different rights 
| and restrictions. And while it’s not unusual for members of various open  
| source communities to prefer one license or license style over another, the 
| market has shown little appetite for a single approach. The LAMP stack, as an 
| example, includes two permissively licensed assets (Apache and PHP) and two 
| reciprocally licensed assets (Linux and MySQL).

Hands on: open-source scripting environment Komodo Edit 4.3

,----[ Quote ]
| ActiveState announced the release of Komodo Edit 4.3 last week, the first 
| version of the cross-platform programming tool to be distributed as open 
| source. Komodo Edit is now tri-licensed under the MPL, GPL, and LGPL, just 
| like Firefox. Through the OpenKomodo initiative, ActiveState has been working 
| closely with Mozilla developers and the open-source software community in an 
| effort to create an open platform that can provide a foundation for scripting 
| and web application development tools.
