Torvalds Critiques of GPLv3 and FSF Refuted

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the time-for-a-face-to-face dept.

j00bar writes "After Linus Torvalds' impassioned critiques of the second draft of GPLv3 and the community process the FSF has organized, Newsforge's Bruce Byfield discovered in conversations with the members of the GPLv3 committees that the committee members disagree; they believe not only has the FSF been responsive to the committees' feedback but also that the second draft includes some modifications in response to Torvalds' earlier criticisms." NewsForge and Slashdot are both owned by OSTG.

    I see the FSF priests are out in full force this morning. The guy who makes unsubstantiated accusations that Linux has sold out gets passed over, but I get modded as a troll.
