One option is to migrate to FreeBSD.
- anonbanker 11y agoWhat if one doesn't want to abandon the four freedoms the GPL provides? Is there another alternative?
- cyphar 11y agoBSD licensing also offers the same freedoms as the GPL. I do like the GPL for many reasons, and I would prefer contributing to a project that uses the GPL rather than licenses that allow proprietary derivatives of code that I spent time and effort writing.
- xiaoma 11y agoDid you read the article? It said a major issue was the enforcement of copyright claims against GPL violators. The foundation has had a lax approach to this, but one of the community members planning to run for election has a much stricter view. How would moving to a non-GPL alternative possibly be a rational response for community members who wanted to elect someone who would fight for the GPL in court?
