Microsoft's current FAT file system licensing program could hobble the
development and free distribution of GPL-licensed software, says an
open-source legal advocate.
However, licensing terms that were once published on Microsoft's
website, which have since vanished, would have been compatible with the
GPL ..
“if someone paid the $250,000 up front, they'd be clear under GPL v2.
They wouldn't be covering the downstream recipients of course, but
that's what GPL v3 fixes."
