It is always suspicious if something is valid for _all_ whatever. And mostly that is just wrong. The claim is often right, the wrong part is that it would be valid for _all_ . > The rules and the way for effective competition and fair trade is laid > out in how every piece of science and technology that is either enabled > with LINUX or how it was designed 10 years ago to how it is being > designed RIGHT NOW. Linux is designed right now by Linus Torvalds.

So Version 1 and Version 3 are also bad? The BSD license also gives "equal opportunity for all" as does M$'s license. The Copyleft clause of the GPL is a barrier for participation, at least for some people. > To serve the human race. > > Right now technology is being used to destroy, crush and create war for > a bunch of damn greedy western institutions. I don't want to destroy your view of the world. But part of the reason for GPL Version 3 was to prevent the technology to be used for things that the FSF does not like,.. And I have heard that the military also uses Open Source Software, and not only your own army but those of other countries too. So if you are not joking, then please think twice before posting statement about the live and death of the whole species.
