Cool article. I like the topic, and I think it makes some fair points. I do have to question the use of the quote from GNU, because it doesn't engage with the GPL where the GPL is. The GPL is not a guide for how to create a software project that survives. It's not a license optimized towards maximizing funding for project. The GPL exists as a tool to protect the 4 essential freedoms. It's possible to have long and boring discussions about how Linux would have turned out if it had been MIT licensed, but they've been had before. for GNU, the GPL, and the FSF, it's clear that if your project can't survive while protecting the users 4 freedoms, then it does not deserve to exist. If you want to engage GNU and the FSF (and supporters of either project) in a discussion about dual licensing and the GPL, the 4 freedoms have to be central. It's not an engineering discussion, it's a moral and ethical one.
