      Yes it is. 1) Can't happen. GPL guarantees stuff like this couldn't.

      2) It's April fool's day. Trust us.

      3) Oh, by the way, did you hear about that IPv4 header bit???

    Just a point here. While it's true that /. posted a link to an April Fools joke, the joke itself is GnomeMeeting's. The *BSD merger is the same thing.

    So in its own way, /. isn't actually playing ANY April Fool's jokes--they're just going about their business as usual, and the rest of the world is providing the material.
