Stallman discusses Free Software and GPLv3

,----[ Quote ]
| Richard Stallman: I am disappointed that Linux has not moved to GPLv3, since 
| that means the added protections for users' freedom do not apply to this 
| important component of the GNU/Linux system. I was also somewhat alarmed to 
| discover that Microsoft has procured the continued use of GPLv2 by certain 
| projects by giving them money.    
| 
| Nonetheless, GPLv3 is used by many free software projects, and has even 
| convinced some developers to liberate previously proprietary software 
| packages. Overall, I think it is accomplishing its mission.

After the TomTom case, Linux is bound to upgrade sooner or later.

GPLv3/AGPLv3 Adoption: If It Happened Too Fast, I'd Be Worried

,----[ Quote ]
| Since the release of GPLv3, technology pundits have been opining about how
| adoption is unlikely, usually citing Linux's still-GPLv2 status as (often
| their only) example. Even though I'm a pro-GPLv3 (and, specifically,
| pro-AGPLv3) advocate, I have never been troubled by slow adoption, as long as
| it remained on a linear upswing from release day onward (which it has).
