GPLv2 clause 6
,----[ Quote ]
| This week I was in Grenoble for the Embedded
| Linux Conference Europe. On the seond day of
| the conference â Friday â I was one of the few
| people wandering around in a suit. Even the
| guys who normally wear suits had dressed down
| to deal with the nitty-gritty of kernel
| threads, time sources, and boot time
| optimization.

| PS. Thanks to Saul Goode for some very careful
| and relevant comments to my previous writing
| on the GPL version 2; in particular pointing
| to the US Copyright Code and how it doesnât
| restrict running the program at all â as
| indeed the GPLv2 itself writes âThe act of
| running the program is now trestricted.â

Benjamin Mako-Hill on Open Source vs. Free, GPL and Prepping for OSCON
,----[ Quote ]
| Now the GPL, the GPL and other copy-left licenses sort of prevent that from
| happening by saying, no; you need to share--you need to insure that the
| freedoms that you had when you received the work are something that can be
| passed on downstream. And that's a tactical decision because the FSF who sort
| of puts out the GPL and continues to modify it--modifies it believes that by
| insuring that the downstream users have freedom and continue to have freedom
| that there will be more freedom overall. The more people that will release
| their stuff as free software, the more people will be encouraged to keep
| things more free in the long run and that ultimately there will be more free
| and open source software as a result. So--and the GPL is designed to protect
| that.
