Maybe we need a #GPL of Privacy Policies; the one document everybody uses and understands. http://ur1.ca/94ho1

I read the #GPL & thereafter had no excuse for remaining lazy and cynical, damn it. Ignorance may not be bliss, but at least it's ignorance.

Finally tax $$ well spent. ♻ @fontana White House releases more code under !GPL v2-or-later http://ur1.ca/387at !drupal !free (via @macon44)

@notafish More useful to think of free software than open source. #GPL asks you to respect the freedom of your users, not to be "open".

Can anybody who rails against !FSF "dictatorship" actually explain what they want to do with software that the #GPL does not permit?

@lefty How in practice should the #FSF prevent such "indulgences"? Would you prefer copyright assignment of all #GPL licensed works to #GNU?

@zotz Anti- #GPL resentment's always been there. The herd just gets agitated and charges now and again for no particular reason.

@dread If there's a #GPL violation the fallback is vanilla copyright, not public domain. ie. you can't distribute at all; "liberty or death"

@bkuhn I smell a Matt Asay column: #GPL will never get anywhere until compliance is as simple and convenient as licensing proprietary code.

Re: #Oracle & #MySQL. Should "any later version" be a part of the #GPL as it is with #CC #BY-SA? !FSF

@magicfab As the name suggests, you can #GPL a program that has code covered by a GPL-compatible license. http://ur1.ca/cqem !pedantry

@chrisbryant Can't think how "true" is a useful concept. A complete free OS is the goal. Everything #GPL or © !GNU would be a distraction.

@bwpanda Template sites are hopeless at licensing. Still, #CC #BY is incompatible with #GPL, but your theme is far from alone there. #Drupal

@mtrausch Insisting downstream recipients conform to #Microsoft's requirements constitutes additional restrictions, and are a #GPL violation

@mtrausch #GPL requires that you give downstream users that freedom, but #Microsoft's #MCP does not allow this.

@mtrausch So relying on the #Microsoft Community Promise would violate the #GPL "liberty or death" clause (section 7 in GPLv2).

@mtrausch Can't distribute patent-encumbered code under !GNU #GPL without royalty-free patent license http://ur1.ca/3l05 http://ur1.ca/3l06

A glimpse into #ESR's fantasy world: Invoking the efficiency of markets to argue against the #GPL. Good timing. http://ur1.ca/3r5c

@mjjzf Some say #GPL v2 wasn't clear enough on patents, but that's highly debatable. See http://ur1.ca/3l05 http://ur1.ca/3l06
