What exactly is the spirit of copyleft? I see this said a number of times, but it doesn't appear to be fully articulated.
- cmdrk 3y agoI'd start from the defintion of Free Software per GNU: https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html#four-freedoms https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html#four-freedoms Personally I consider GPL an _implementation_ of copyleft rather than copyleft itself.
