Comments on: Newest GPL draft leaves Novell in the clear

Final draft of GPL 3 doesn't block the Novell-Microsoft patent pact that has raised open-source hackles.

Time will tell

Maybe this is a proper compromise, we shall see.

I still don't think that GPL3 will be all that widely adopted, despite scare tactics used to try and get more people behind it.

Yeah right! They fear the rath of MS is more like it!!

They know better than to stir the waking giant by foiling its opportunities to leverage linux. That's the reality of the situation.

[MSSlayer]

Yeah

They fear a company that has no innovative ideas and the only way it has left to try and defend its ill gotten gains is to make accusations without offering proof.

Yeah, F/OSS is afraid of a bully that has its pants around its ankles.

Socialist Software Policy at its Best

How on earth these individuals were ever able to socialize software and circumvent intellectual property right laws here in the U.S. of all places is abominable. I can see how the socialists in Europe would let this crap persist, but as Coolidge once said "the business of America is business".

[MSSlayer]

wow

Stupidity know no bounds at MS I see.

Yeah, whatever is good for business rules eh? Even though MS has been nothing but a destructive force in the IT world.

Ignorance knows no bounds

Destroy Open Source and let Microsoft dominate the software industry.

If you lived in the 1500s-1600s I wonder if you would have condemned Copernicus and Galileo for their alternative views?
