Not only that, but I could have sworn that Casper's statement was about those spreading anti-CDDL FUD, not about those who like GPL. As for the latter, I happen to like (and use) GPLv2. I think it's a useful license and (apparently unlike others posting here) I don't feel that its political implications are necessarily a bad thing. I just don't let that color my view of other licenses. It doesn't seem necessary to grasp at one, and declare all others to be worthless, which is essentially what the FSF's position statements have done. It's a silly, defensive, round-the-wagons approach. -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 1 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
