I'll mail FSF about this.
Rather, it's a mistake in GPLv3 *iff* it should be a strong copyleft. FSF changing its basic guidance to create retrospective continuity is the wrong way to fix this, just like editing the GNU website after a GNU luminary makes false claims in interviews is the wrong way to fix those. Instead, try apologising and issuing corrections... Or maybe GPLv3 was never meant to be a strong copyleft. iDunno. -- MJ Ray http://mjr.towers.org.uk/email.html tel:+44-844-4437-237 - Webmaster-developer, statistician, sysadmin, online shop builder, consumer and workers co-operative member http://www.ttllp.co.uk/ - Writing on koha, debian, sat TV, Kewstoke http://mjr.towers.org.uk/ _______________________________________________ Discussion mailing list [email protected] https://mail.fsfeurope.org/mailman/listinfo/discussion
