Does that mean the GPL is soon to be on the
'deprecated' list? Seriously, this is not intended as
a troll. I'd find it hard to call the GPL either
clear and understandable, or technically correct.
Would a clear, technically correct rewrite of the GPL
be "duplicative"? If so, isnt the Board's statement
foreclosing the possiblity of real improvement on the
issue of satisfying both 'suits' and 'hackers'?
