Next GPL3 Draft to be Released on Wednesday

Bruce Perens Sat, 24 Mar 2007 11:52:51 PDT  Open Source Software 

At the FSF general meeting today, Richard Stallman announced that the
third discussion draft of GPL version 3 will be released on Wednesday
and will be open for public comment. This will be moved briskly into a
last-call version, and they hope to close in early June. This version
has an additional paragraph that addresses anyone who tries to do what
Microsoft is currently doing in the Novell-Microsoft agreement. The
language to address anyone who tries to do what Novell is doing is still
being constructed, Eben Moglen commented to me that Richard has rejected
the latest and best proposal for Novell-role language and that they will
formulate new language and try again.
