(...) the new GPL is very important and much is at stake in the revision process. The Linux kernel, the vast majority of the GNU project's development tool-chain, and more than seven of 10 programs under any free software license are subject to the terms of the the GPLv2 and, in the vast majority of cases, "any later version."
All you RMS/FSF/GPL/GNU -bashers, including some NF editors, should remember these words next time spite makes you feel like bashing those who did so much more for our community than you!
While you were yapping at them RMS and the FSF got something as vitally important as the GNU project and the GPL up and running, and with stunning success I might add. Now, they are doing a great job with the GPL3.
