Nathan Willis wrote the following on Linux Weekly News :
"On the final day of LinuxCon Europe 2015, HP's Chief Technology Officer
Martin Fink delivered a bold keynote about software licensing. Fink recapped
the negative effects of license proliferation and addressed projects that use
their choice of license as hostile act against the competition. He then ended
the session with an extended appeal to move the open-source software industry
away from permissive licenses like Apache 2.0 and toward copyleft licenses
like the GPL."
