Licensing

GPL vs BSD

September 3, 2007 Daniel Stenberg

kerneltrap writes an interesting piece about how some Linux kernel developers wants to remove the BSD parts of the dual-license that appears in several files (and thus keep only the GPL-part) that are kind of co-developed with parts of the BSD community. Complete with lots of Theo de Raadt quotes. Spoiler: no, they’re not allowed to do so.

This was covered on slashdot.
