How GPLv3 Tackles Licence Proliferation

I wrote an editorial for LinuxDevices:

It’s meant as a discussion primer for what can be done in the GPL to remove reasons for people to write new licences, and to ease the problems created by new licences – such as licence incompatibility.

The third discussion draft is due out on November 23rd, or soon afterward, so getting comments in via gplv3.fsf.org in the next two weeks is a good idea.

Enjoy the weekend. I’ll see some Fellows at the first international Fellowship meeting tomorrow (Nov 11th, Italy).
