Eben Moglen Sends Letter in Support of Oracle to EU Commission - GPL Works No Matter Who Owns the Copyrights

,----[ Quote ]
| Isn't that disgusting? Blow his own horn much? 
| Moglen "unimportant in a GPL context"?
| 
| Moglen is the lawyer who has been enforcing 
| the GPL since 1994. He served *without fee* as 
| General Counsel for the FSF during that time, 
| until he founded the Software Freedom Law 
| Center. He led the revision process for GPLv3. 
| Yes, that means he *wrote* it, with input from 
| the world. There is literally no one who 
| understands the GPL legally any better than he 
| does. Guess who Richard Stallman contacts if 
| he has a legal question about it? Yes. 
| Exactly.

Should the White House Contribute to the Open Source Community?

,----[ Quote ]
| While this measure may not be an immediate
| cost-saver (5 different companies are
| involved in re-building and maintaining the
| White House web site), long-term costs
| should fall as government agencies are able
| to borrow from the greater Drupal community
| while incrementally improving on the
| websites code. But the question remains,
| will the Obama White House share some of the
| contributions itâs making to open source?
