GPL v3 due Friday — don’t trip over the lawyers at the Apple Store

Talk about timing ... just as the iPhone hysteria whips into a physical
location frenzy near you, a probably more significant development will
unfold on Friday.

Reports have it that the postponed but widely anticipated latest GLP
open source license, version 3, will become available.

So all those lawyers at Microsoft can kill two birds with one off-campus
trip. They can buy their Apple iPhone (they can afford one), connect to
their iTunes on their Windows laptops, set it up on WiFi and then listen
and watch the video stream of the GPLv3 launch on the pristine iPhone
screen — all while still in their cars outside the Apple Store in
Bellevue.

Can’t do that with a SUSE Linux server, can you?

Sweet.
