Define vast majority of the GPL camp. Give me the
facts, give me the links.
My statement was based on the assumption that "the vast majority of the GPL
camp" tends to agree with the FSF when interpreting the GPL.
The FSF's position is clearly stated here:
http://www.fsf.org/licensing/licenses/gpl-faq.html#DoesTheGPLAllowMoney
The FSF uses bad wording, see my other mail about this. They talk
about charging for distribution of sw.
Have you ever applied the GPL to your own work? What is your interest in this?
No, and as a lawyer i seek to strenghten fair use and appropriate
compensation for the use of GPLed software, whether in form of code or
money, for the original copyright holders.
