The GPL is the best free software license to hamper indirect users' freedom to not license source code under such terms. GPL is also extremely ambiguous for many types of software, especially when it comes to dynamically typed languages. We just don't know what "linking" means under those environments. Having that said, I too have been wondering about the same thing antirez talked about. I wondering how many OSS developers actually receive back monetary compensation for their time put into writing their software. I'm not even talking about compensation in direct relation to the value their software, which for all I know, if that were the case, Linus and Stallman should have been as rich as Steve Jobs. There's definitely a mismatch between what people are paid for and what people most valuable for in our current industry. I wonder if there was another GPL version that's better suited for JS/Python/Ruby or whatever will actually start forcing the companies to hire more OSS developers.
