  1. Palamida has nothing to do with the FSF/GPL. by Whiney+Mac+Fanboy · · Score: 4, Funny · on A Year of GPLv3

    And they feel they have to do these "studies" for marketing reasons.

    Palamida is a security company. They're not the FSF, who, unlike MS do not have reams of cash to promote the GPL.

    GPLv3 = IPv6 = Vista = "wfc";

    Uh-huh. Uptake of the GPLv3 (as a percentage of GPLv2 instances) is far higher than Vista (compared to Windows installs) or IPV6 vs IPV4

    Iditot.

  2. Graph by Per+Abrahamsen · · Score: 2, Informative · on Number of GPL v3 projects tops 2,000

    A simple linear interpretation of the data isn't that useful - maybe I should RTFA to see if there's a graph or something?

    The original source has a graph, kind of, and the increase seems pretty much linear to me.

  3. This has already been around for years by LS · · Score: 3, Informative · on HP Launches FOSSology Open Source Tracking Tool

    A friend of mine in SF started a company a few years back called Palamida that provides a very similar service. I don't think their code is GPLed though.

  4. Re:"3110 known GPLv2 projects"? by sumdumass · · Score: 2, Interesting · on Under User Pressure, SugarCRM Adopts GPLv3

    According to this which I saw from this post, there are 2884 GPLv2 projects still and 235 have already moved to GPLv3.

    So 2884+235=3119 total projects I trailed a few off for new projects and such. But the gist is right.

    Maybe freshmeat doesn't list them all?

  5. Re:GPL Converts. by just_another_sean · · Score: 3, Insightful · on Under User Pressure, SugarCRM Adopts GPLv3

    Considering that about 235 projects have moved to GPLv3 and we haven't seen that many articles I'd say no, there won't be a story for every switch.

    But I'm gald to know we will get an article when a project that used a license that barely qualified as OSS but uses all the latest buzzwords and marketing to look like OSS switches to the GPLv3.

  6. Re:who do you want to sue today? by SwashbucklingCowboy · · Score: 1 · on Microsoft Launches Linux Labs Website
    How do they ensure that none of that source doesn't leak into MS products?

    I don't know this, but I would imagine they use software from either Blackduck or Palamida. While these are not foolproof, they are good at finding tainting from open source.
