For those still searching for background on this topic to try and
understand the effects and discussions of the GPL vs CDDL licensing in
other distros and how this may affect your use on Gentoo, you may find
the respective articles on wikipedia instructive. Don't just read the
brief blurbs included in Wikipedia, but take a look at the citations
included in the articles as well. I'm not sure it gives all sides of
the discussion, but it should be illuminating on some of the
background details that people were requesting.

P.S. I'm fully aware that the text of the wiki articles may be
considered biased, that's a topic to take up on Wikipedia and not
here. I'm just using the articles as a jumping point to what appear
to be primary sources so people can draw their own conclusions.
