I'm not taking a position at the moment. Hell, I'm barely qualified to take a position. It just feels to me that the courts have given themselves so much wiggle room to change their minds in a second that we're back in the wild west.
As an aside, the first version of the GPL was released more than thirty years ago and it's hardly had a chance to "stand trial" in most courts. How long is it going to take something substantially more complex than a "simple" matter of contract law to make its way through that convoluted system?
