What will be in GPLv4?
GPLv4 will be basically the same as all previous versions: it will
grant the four freedoms to everyone, and protect them for everyone, as
best as we can achieve. We will change only details.
Those so called freedoms are covered by copyright law. You really don't
need a 10000 word license.
My idea. And every new word can hide a new bug or even more, so the
version count will get much higher than 4. Less code is by design the
only thing that gives more clarity and security...
The only thing you are trying to protect is the relevance of the FSF.
It's clear that one of Richard Stallman's main goals is further
Balkanizing the open source community. Divide and conquer, a primitive
and mean way to proceed with this idealistic matter. Really very sad
that such an influential person uses this kind of methods.
But yes, you may Richard, you may. This is a BSD list, nobody here
holds you with your primitive pursuit of happiness.

All your code are belong to FSF!
