Their hostility toward the GPL is, in my mind, the proof that the souring was justified. I'm not sure if this hostility is general to the LF as a whole, or just in the CNCF, but: the CNCF has a policy about what acceptable licenses are for dependencies of CNCF projects, there's a list of approved licenses, and if you want to add a dependency on a library with a different license, you have to apply to the CNCF board for an exception to use that library. The GPL is not on that list, and there's a note that the board has never approved an exception to allow a library with a GPL-family license. The fact that a large sub-org in the Linux Foundation is allowed to ban the GPL is a disgrace.
