This is what I am referring to, among other things:

"7. License Compatibility.

When you release a work based on the Program, you may include your own terms 
covering added parts for which you have, or can give, appropriate copyright 
permission, as long as those terms clearly permit all the activities that this 
License permits, or permit usage or relicensing under this License. Your terms 
may be written separately or may be this License plus additional written 
permission. [B]If you so license your own added parts, those parts may be used 
separately under your terms, but the entire work remains under this 
License[/B]."

Taken directly from:

http://gplv3.fsf.org/draft

And that is just one of the things I find to be insane / unreasonable / fascist 
with the license. There are many more parts which made my jaw drop.

How could anybody accept or license their work under this license? Why would 
they ever want to submit their work to such fascist terms?

I could think of a number of licenses far better than the GPL. CDDL is one such 
case. BSD license, another.

Why is CDDL suddenly no good any more? Why?
