Not that I have any sources to cite, but I believe GPL v2 was written solely by RMS (possibly with help from Eben Moglen.)

How Linux Works describes the inside of the Linux system for systems administrators,
whether you maintain an extensive network in the office or one Linux box at home.
Some books try to give you copy- and-paste instructions for how to deal with every
single system issue that may arise, but How Linux Works actually shows you how the
Linux system functions so that you can come up with your own solutions.
After a guided tour of filesystems, the boot sequence, system management basics,
and networking, author Brian Ward delves into open-ended topics such as development
tools, custom kernels, and buying hardware, all from an administrator's point of view.
With a mixture of background theory and real-world examples, this book shows both
"how" to administer Linux, and "why" each particular technique works, so that you will
know how to make Linux work for you.

Plenty (read: most) Computer Science graduates with first class degrees got them by being good at the bollocks, and mediocre (or useless) at anything useful.Of course, I'm bitter because I was never any good at the bollocks, so I got a crappy degree. Bullshit. CS grads with first class degrees got them by being good at everything.
