GPLv3 hits 50 percent adoption

,----[ Quote ]
| In July 2007, version 3 of the GNU General Public License barely accounted 
| for 164 projects. A year later, the number had climbed past 2,000 total 
| projects. Today, as announced by Google open-source programs office manager 
| Chris DiBona, the number of open-source projects licensed under GPLv3 is at 
| least 56,000.

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).
