Me too, and I still believe that the GPL was the right way to go
in the early 1990s. But for wow ,the world did change and the GPL is
neither the best solution anymore nor do I like to have endless discussions
with the GPL extremists.
I'm sure the GPL community feels that their license is the best solution
for what they want to do. Why can't we simply recognize that and focus
on building own stuff? GPL may not work for our community and for our
code base, but it seems to be pretty successful for those guys.
Personally, that impresses me massively.
Exactly. I propose to stop any GPL vs. CDDL discussions on m-l all
over... it doesn't do any good to us. Instead we should go to sites like
slashdot.org, etc with good written articles and detailed howto's on why
CDDL is actually better GPL.
Would it be possible to write those articles focusing on the benefits
you are getting from CDDL and leave GPL out of it entirely? Why compare
and say CDDL is better? I would argue that CDDL is not better; it's just
different.
